One other thing I found contributed significantly to high blood pressure,
and that was caffeine. Two cups of tea or coffee could spike my systolic
by
a good 10 points, and diastolic by about 6-7. Are you a tea/coffee
drinker?


Yeah, I used to drink an entire 10-cup pot per day.

Five years ago I switched to Folger's "half-and-half" -- which is a mix of
half decaf and have regular coffee. I can drink all I want without getting
wired -- and I still often drink an entire pot myself.

I suppose that's having some impact on my BP, but decaf coffee is just SO
awful. I don't understand why they can't make it taste better, like they've
done with diet and caffeine-free colas...

Decaffinated coffee is an oxymoron.
