I posted this because I believe it is relevant to the purpose of this site which is to provide information about heart rhythm conditions. It was about BP and not about doctors or pharmaceutical companies. If you don't like the way that health care is being provided, then take your rants to a site where your post will be relevant.

How are they not related? I don't think a 6 word comment counts as a rant.
Your post being about BP relates to docs and big pharma. The goal should be to lower your BP if needed. Mine is always low, around 100 or maybe 110, 60. It is that way because I eat few animal products, very very few processed foods. The rants as you call them are trying to benefit you to have better health without unnecessary drugs. But do what you wish. But the rants are relevant. Most people are short of correct nutrition, their body is not short of pills.

Thank you.
I for one found your post very helpful, and have bookmarked it to refer to when answering questions on Mayo Connect about blood pressure concerns.
It seems most people don't know what the thresholds are for elevated and high blood pressure, they just hear the doctor say "you have high blood pressure." Having a place to point, and an easily readable explanation is very helpful.
