Question:

High blood pressure runs in my family. Smokers and nonsmokers alike eventually get it. I saw a programme on BBC dealing with garlic and its effects on blood pressure. This girl took garlic in many different ways and her blood pressure was taken after the suitable time had elapsed. It transpired that the only type of garlic that reduced her blood pressure was eating raw cloves.

Right! So now I'm lashing the raw garlic into me! ( Well, a crushed clove every night so that the odour won't be too bad in the daytime. ) There is murder in the house! They are all going mad! These same people will eat chinese curry which smells awful but my bit of garlic is causing war. I think they are selfish and I refuse to give in. I've also explained to my kids that since they have my genes, they too will need to look after their blood pressure. By the way, I get enough exercise. What would you do in this situation?
I dont really know which category to put this under.

Answers:
Sweetheart, it is like this. You do what you have to do to stay healthy. You don't want to have to start taking high blood pressure medicine. I say rock on and eat the stuff. Because in the end you are doing it not only for you but for all of them 'cause I know they would want to keep you around as long as possible..

id put it under see my doctor
