BP,Beetroot & Celery

It surely is an odd world ... up really early this morning to visit my 24 hour local Asda. I'm checking out a dozen varieties of beetroot when I open a conversation with a lady also inspecting the shelves. She is a nurse at my local health centre although not my Government appointed person. I explain about Pprune, my BP and the many posts. As they all seem to say in the medical world ... she concurred.

Two packs of packaged beetroot and a dozen sticks of Celery to the check-out. My internet checks advise around 7 days for any affect on BP. I'll duly report shortly. This morning's 'Boots' figure was 138/79, averaged out over the last seven days at 145/85. HB was 78 sitting.

Many thanks for the contributors. Dennis K.

PS. Is the general consensus we should avoid Coffee and Salt?
