Default Hypertension and Apple Cider Vinegar

I'm very sensitive to meds of any kind, and when the docs changed my high blood pressure medicines a bit this last year, I've been struggling a lot.
Blood pressure meds do work, they damper your blood pressure, however they also dampen the entire nervous system and I felt weary a lot, both mentally and physically. Like one forum post I read said, the guy thought he'd rather live a shorter life than be on the meds all the time.

I started looking for alternatives, and tripped across some posts/forums on Apple Cider Vinegar (health food stores or publix), and, amazingly, I started on this, stopped the blood pressure meds and within a week, I'm doing pretty darned good, my blood pressure is still up and down a bit, but within range more often than not, and when high, I just take a shot of the ACV - apparently it oxides the blood and thins it.

Read about Apple Cider Vinegar a bit, and it's like a tonic for "what ales you".

Anyway, it's worked well for me, it's cheap and effective, just thought I'd pass it along. Also works well for glucose, cholesterol and a host of things.
