Tom Venuto: I’m glad you keep mentioning that a lot of this stuff can be obtained from the food you eat – garlic, ginger, olive oil and so on. Ok, next one is Hyperexol. It says drops your blood pressure 30 points in 30 days or it’s FREE. That’s pretty specific and convincing with the guarantee. It says it’s a doctor approved formula, all natural ingredients. The ingredients list is magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, potassium, alum sativa, hawthorne berry, vitamin C, cayenne pepper, taurine. Buy 2 bottles get 1 free $114. Frank Mangano: It’s correct in its claims that this supplement contains ingredients proven to lower blood pressure. The next thing I look at when choosing a supplement, then, is the reputation of the manufacturer. Since herbs are not approved or regulated by the FDA, the industry must regulate itself. In the case of Hyperexol, this formula was devised by a naturopath who is board certified by their governing agencies. The website for the product also gives consumers easy to find and clear contact names and number – another good sign that this is a reputable company. While I’m not endorsing a particular brand of supplements, I can recommend that consumers contact the manufacturer of whatever supplement they are considering and ask them for their research information. You can ask such questions of the manufacturer as, “Where do you obtain your herbs? How are they processed? What studies have you conducted?” A good manufacturer will have this information readily available to send to you. Tom Venuto: Okay last one, more herbal stuff, I’ve seen that all over the internet – herbs for blood pressure. This one is advertised as a natural remedy. Comes in capsules or liquid $36.95 a bottle. Most of the stuff in here I’ve never even heard of, then again I’m no herbalist, but I’ve heard of a few of these ingredients. Taraxum I’ve heard of – that’s dandelion - it’s often put into weight loss pills or herbal water pills or natural diuretics. There’s also olea europea, agathosma betulina, that’s butchu - also an herbal diuretic I’ve hear that one too, actually this whole formula looks to me like an herbal diuretic. I do know for a fact that some of these natural herbal diuretics can temporarily remove water retention and I know about this from bodybuilders who use natural diuretics because they go into drug tested contests and prescription diuretics are banned or they just don’t want to mess with them. In fact, famous pro bodybuilders have died from taking lasix. But what about in the context of blood pressure, would an herbal diuretic be of any benefit? Frank Mangano: Herbal diuretics are beneficial in controlling blood pressure. What I would caution people about is that diuretic use can cause severe potassium deficiencies. In fact, some of the prescription diuretics used to lower blood pressure are “potassium preserving” so that this doesn’t happen. A mild diuretic is okay, but I’d rely more on drinking plenty of water. Tom Venuto: Let me fire a few quick questions at you point blank about all these advertised remedies. One, how do you know this stuff works? Do you take an advertisers word for it? Two, how do you know which one to choose – there’s so many – and these were just a few websites I found inside 10 or 15 minutes. Three, should people be self prescribing and self medicating after doing a little Internet research like I just did – is it safe? Is it even necessary or could healthy nutrition and exercise and losing excess fat be enough? Frank Mangano: Those are all good questions, Tom. A little information can be dangerous, especially when it comes to health problems. There is little monitoring going on about what claims are true or false when it comes to herbal supplements too. Unfortunately the FDA doesn’t get involved until people start getting seriously injured and complaints are filed, such as with ephedra usage. Under the FDA’s Dietary Health and Supplement Education Act of 1994, the manufacturer is responsible for ensuring their products are safe before it goes to market. It doesn’t mention the effectiveness of the claims, but states the manufacturer must make sure the product label is truthful and not misleading. It leaves a lot of wiggle room for manufacturers that are not completely reputable to make unsubstantiated claims. Again, I’ll caution everyone who is listening that you need to get background information on a manufacturer before taking that supplement. The FDA does publish on their website tips for making informed choices about supplements. It’s found at FDA.org, and called, “Tips For The Savvy Supplement User: Making Informed Decisions And Evaluating Information.” The basic vitamins, minerals and herbs that you need to maintain healthy blood pressure can be supplied – for the most part – by the foods you eat. It’s all about setting up a nutritional plan specific to supporting good blood pressure. If you do that, little, if any, supplementing will be need.
