Blood Presure, Cholesterol and Steroids...

One of the bad sides of steroid use is the high blood presure and cholesterol problems we get while on cycle...Almost every steroid will effect BP and Cholesterol in a bad way and with all the added protein we need to eat and all the water weight we put on with certain steroids and all the added body weight we gain in muscle or fat all adds to problems with BP and cholesterol...It can cause alot of problems for some and even to the point of a stroke and death if we don't control it... For the next few months I will add to this thread several things we can do to lower our blood pressure and help our cholesterol while on cycle and off... Part one: When your blood pressure creeps up, help knock it down with this simple change in diet... Get 20 percent of your daily calories from whole-grain, high-fiber foods instead of refined "white" carbs... It could drop your systolic BP 4 to 8 points and your diastolic BP another 6 to 8 points... Double Trouble High blood pressure and high cholesterol are double trouble... Both put you at risk for cardiovascular disease, and they frequently occur together... If you have borderline high cholesterol (200-239 mg/dL) and prehypertension (120-139/80-89 mm Hg), it's time to take action... Here's How Fiber Helps Both soluble and insoluble fiber were shown to lower blood pressure in middle-aged people with the unfortunate combo of borderline high cholesterol and prehypertension... Soluble fiber does double duty by lowering cholesterol, too...
