Hi, I had high BP for years.. when I was 150lbs it was still borderline (140/80).. I lost only 9 lbs on induction but my bp dropped to the normal range in those 2 weeks! (it had been fluctuating between 197/103 to 169/98)

I think its to do with the white stuff - pots, flour, sugar etc, nowadays to my docs amazement it is usually in the 130/80 range (twice had it at 123/75 !! lowest in years!)

I read somewhere that eating oatmeal and bran muffins will drop bp like a rock (I did add these products after induction for a few weeks) so try that for your bf.

Lots of whole grain cereals, muffins etc.
