Simple Lifestyle Modifications to Control High Blood Pressure
Simple Lifestyle Modifications to Control High Blood Pressure and More
Are you experiencing issues with hypertension? Hypertension is a term used to describe high blood pressure. It can be known as the “silent killer” because it causes no or few attention-getting symptoms. If left untreated it can cause damage to your arteries that can’t be undone. I can work with you to help control your high blood pressure by making changes in your diet, using intermittent fasting, weight loss medications, and more tailored options just for you.
Help control blood pressure with simple lifestyle modifications:
- Eat a clean diet (see below for clean recipes)
- Avoid tobacco smoke
- Take the proper medications
- Limit use of alcohol
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Exercise regularly
- Learn how to manage stress
Obesity Medicine, Metabolic Specialist, Family Physician and Passionate Chef
I consider myself a bariatrician. A bariatrician is a medical weight loss doctor who uses non-surgical methods as a way to treat obesity and its associated conditions. By reducing body fat responsible for the disease processes while maintaining muscle mass, I can help prevent and reverse said obesity related diseases. I take my patients through a variety of customized medically-supervised weight loss techniques.
Life Changing Results
Our patients have seen incredible improvements when it comes to their health and weight loss. By following a plant forward diet, staying active, and working with me on their customized weight loss methods (ex. intermittent fasting), patients have lost from 20 to 115 pounds. I have seen everything from gut health and inflammation improved to treated obesity and reversing hypertension. Explore the great outdoors while working in some local cardio-filled activities. Take in the views with a walking trail at historic Waterloo Village, a restored 19th century canal town in Byram Township, Sussex County. Hike, bike, or horse ride several miles of trails throughout Allamuchy Mountain State Park.
Clean Eating and Weight Loss
Don’t worry about missing out on anything when sticking to a vegetarian diet. With my custom meal planner and recipes, you will have the chance to explore a plethora of delicious foods with an endless variety of healing plants. I will bust the myth that vegetarian food is boring one healthy meal at a time. As a practicing physician, I have heard some people assume that being vegetarian means eating salads and that’s just not the case with my practice. We will keep you excited and looking forward to all of your healthy meals while losing weight and feeling amazing.
