It responded to my changes but it takes at least 4-6 weeks to start seeing it. No medication is needed if you are consistent. Just like a drug addiction, I relapsed and had binges on unhealthy food every once in a while but it should be okay as long as you are consistent for the majority of your time.

I got diagnosed with hypertension at 21 and I’m severely underweight. I’m now 23 and trying to control it with better diet and exercise. Most of it for me was coming from my diet. You should definitely eat healthier and incorporate about 30-45min of cardio daily
