Where do we find a team. I’m just being handed medication with no mention of lifestyle. (Salt reduction 🙄🙄) But I live the lifestyle recommended in my study of this issue. For many years. (I’m 74). I’m also kind of uncomfortable with too many docs on my case as personal trust in medicine has been extremely eroded the last decade. I pray things change.

Janet-you are recognizing the system is broken. You cannot find a team because there are no teams. You can encourage your local medical group or health system to develop one.

Your views and solutions are so spot on. Especially focused on women snd CVD. Do you think the situation will really change at some point or will it have to get destroyed before it gets better? I gave your kidney disease articles to my husband. He is now going to find another kidney doc. Armed with more discernment about his condition to make a good choice. Thanks.

Yup. Your neighbor Lady Jean is a perfect example. This injustice must be brought to its end.

The fundamental problem with this colossal failure of the what I call the “late stage sickness seeking profiteering American Medical Industrial Complex Kabuki Dance Theatre” is their unwillingness to acknowledge the lack of interest in understanding of tue root causes of hypertension or all the chronic diseases and allowing the all vitally important primary lifestyle optimization prevention measures to save mankind. This is a crime against humanity!
