Episode 32 - Reversing Disease: An interview with Ron Mitchell
What do you do when your doctor informs you that you have high blood pressure?
You take blood pressure medicine… for the rest of your life.
That’s the path Ron Mitchell was on.
An avid runner, Ron’s blood pressure had gotten to the point where he needed to regulate it with medicine.
And, he did.
For awhile.
Until he had an allergic reaction to the medication that landed him in the Emergency Room.
At that point, he decided that he was done with taking prescriptive drugs.
He increased his running and made some dietary changes. Specifically, he eliminated meat products from his diet and began following a plant-based diet.
That was over ten years ago and he’s never had a blood pressure problem again.
He’s also never taken another prescriptive drug of any kind.
Let me remind you of something:
Reversing high blood pressure AND not taking any prescriptive drugs is virtually unheard of in this country.
Especially for a 75 year old male.
But Ron is living proof of what the human body is capable of.
