Most Cardiologists Won't Tell You This. Mine Didn't. If you have high blood pressure or any heart related issues, chances are you are deficient in several nutritional areas. My cardiologist never told me this, I had to find it out on my own. If you have Hypertension (high blood pressure), you should restrict your sodium (salt) intake, but one the problems this creates is a lack of iodine in your diet which can cause other problems. Iodine is typically added to table salt and has been for eons to assure that that people get enough of it in their diet. Remove salt from your diet, and you also remove iodine. The best source of iodine in a supplement is Kelp. Yes, seaweed. Doesn't sound real appetizing, but you can take it in pill form and never have to worry about the taste of it. NOW Supplements, Kelp 325 mcg of Natural Iodine, Supports Healthy Thyroid Function*, Super Green, 250 Veg Capsules is a 250 day supply at 1 capsule a day. $10.94 on Amazon Prime. https://amzn.to/3BC9OJa Another thing heart patients need to be taking is Qunol Ubiquinol Coenzyme Q10. I had never heard of it before a co-worker who also had heart problems asked me if I was taking it. He was surprised when I told him I had never heard of it, because his cardiologist told him about it and recommended he take it. It is the most highly recommended coenzyme Q10 in the U.S, recommended by cardiologists. Apparently his cardiologist was better than mine. I took my friend's advice and began taking it. The next time I had an appointment with my cardiologist, he told me my heart health had improved immensely and asked me what I had done to accomplish it. When I told him, he was rather embarrassed because he hadn't given me the recommendation. The cheapest place I have found it available is also on Amazon: Qunol Ubiquinol CoQ10 200mg Softgels, Powerful Antioxidant for Heart and Vascular Health, Essential for Energy Production, Natural Supplement Active Form of CoQ10, 60ct Softgels $33.11 https://amzn.to/3FUUpWS
