Leading Doctors Remedial Approaches for High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure is closely linked to metabolic health, which is why many of the same dietary and lifestyle recommendations apply to both it and Type 2 Diabetes. As you can see from our previous conversation, there is significant overlap in the recommendations of these doctors.
Here is a table summarising the recommendations of all nine doctors for managing high blood pressure:

Doctor	Recommends Low/No Refined Sugars	Recommends Low Carbohydrates	Recommends Intermittent Fasting
Dr. Neal Barnard	✔
Dr. Ford Brewer	✔		✔
Dr. Frita	✔
Dr. Suneel Dhand	✔		✔
The Cooking Doc® (Dr. Blake Shusterman)	✔
Dr. Pradip Jamnadas	✔	✔	✔
Dr. Ken Berry	✔	✔	✔
Dr. Jason Fung	✔	✔	✔
Dr. William Davis	✔	✔	✔

Based on the doctors’ philosophies, there are two primary schools of thought. Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Jason Fung, and Dr. William Davis believe insulin resistance from sugar and refined carbohydrates is the root cause of these diseases, and they advocate for low-carb diets and intermittent fasting. In contrast, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Frita, The Cooking Doc® (Dr. Blake Shusterman), Dr. Ford Brewer, and Dr. Suneel Dhand do not restrict carbohydrates, instead focusing on low-fat, whole-food, or low-sodium diets and the timing of meals to improve overall metabolic health.
