Supplements and high blood pressure
« on: May 14, 2010, 11:35:25 PM »
For the last 4 years I have had weird blood pressure.
My systolic blood pressure could be as high as 150 and my Diastolic blood pressure could be as low as 50
So my high reading was too high and my low reading was too low.

I stopped all pre work out supplements any thing to do with creatine, stims and NOX about a month ago and my blood pressure readings are now averaging 123/65 !!!

My weight and stress levels are the same the only thing that has changed is that I am taking a break from supps for the first time in years.

thats know as pulse pressure a be-careful as research suggest a wide pulse pressure can be associated with heart disease later on
