3 years ago, I was diagnosed - hypertension with a reading of 160/100. I used to feel dizzy a lot, my legs had awful cramps, and levels were very low in my potassium, causing my fingers and toes to always cramp together. One day I started to feel really faint while I was driving with my daughter in the back seat and I passed out, hitting 3 cars and ending up in a ditch. That moment,I knew I had to do something because my meds weren't working. I heard about this diet from a friend and thought I'd give it a shot. The results have been remarkable. In just 21 days, I honestly can't remember feeling this good, my blood pressure went from 175/110 to 125/70.

People who drink and smoke are often "stuffing" feelings, which from a holistic viewpoint has a great impact on metabolism / cholesterol. Given the personal stats you listed, the best thing you can do is see a good psychologist to help you free the anxieties your habits keep imprisoned. You want to be able to nix the alcohol and stop smoking, a natural outcome of healing. That's sure a high cholesterol number. You didn't mention your height/weight or level of physical fitness. Metabolism shifts in life's 2nd trimester, and by its 3rd we no longer have wiggle room. Congratulations on your considerable successes (e.g., meth recovery). You deserve to enjoy even more peace, and I believe you can. P.S. The lower number in blood pressure is of more import, and it's creeping up there. Homeopathy is another resource, in isolation or with other modalities, to not only help release inner ghosts, but restore balance to your physical body (i.e., metabolism, blood pressure). If you see a homeopath, be sure to interview 2-3 for a personality fit, and to check credentials, training, experience and certification. Make sure your homeopath of choice has a 100% homeopathy practice. (It's common today for conventional and alternative practitioners to offer homeopathy, only it's a consumer-level, acute-care knowledge - and won't provide the help you need.) Take care. I'm rooting for you.
