In 2018, dangerously high blood pressure nearly stole my husband David from me—and from our three children. I watched as my strong, capable husband who used to coach our son's baseball team and hike every weekend became a shell of himself, constantly exhausted, constantly terrified that any moment could be his last.
What's worse – his doctors weren't much help. Despite taking four different blood pressure medications—each with brutal side effects—his numbers kept climbing to terrifying levels. 182/119. Sometimes as high as 196/124. The medications made him dizzy, killed his energy, destroyed his libido, and left him feeling like a zombie. But they did nothing to address the real problem.
Then came that devastating phone call I'll never forget. David collapsed at work with severe chest pains. The paramedics rushed him to the ER. Sitting in that cold hospital waiting room, not knowing if my husband would survive, not knowing how I'd raise our children alone... that was the darkest moment of my life.
The cardiologist told us bluntly: "If you don't get this blood pressure under control, you won't see your 50th birthday. We can add more medications, but your body is already struggling with the ones you're on."
Frustrated and terrified, I started doing research on my own. I was shocked at the lack of natural, effective options available to David—and the millions of people like him suffering in silence, prisoners to their own bodies.
After months of obsessive research—combing through medical journals at 2am while my family slept, reaching out to researchers across the globe—I discovered Dr. Marcus Alvarez and his groundbreaking work in Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula. His research on homocysteine opened my eyes: there is a way to flush this dangerous amino acid from your bloodstream and naturally normalize blood pressure without harsh medications.
The Costa Rican centenarians had been doing it for generations with a simple tea ritual. No pills. No side effects. Just ancient botanical wisdom backed by modern science.
With this newfound knowledge burning in my heart, I partnered with Dr. Alvarez and a well-respected manufacturer to formulate the first batch of what would become Cardio Slim Tea.
I'll never forget the day, six weeks later, when David texted me from his doctor's appointment: "Sarah... you need to see this." His blood pressure reading: 121/79. His doctor was stunned. For the first time in three years, David's numbers were in the healthy range.
Fast forward to today, this ancient Costa Rican formula has now helped more than 96,000 people worldwide (David included) normalize their blood pressure, shed dangerous weight, and reclaim their lives from the constant fear of heart attack and stroke.
David is back to coaching baseball. We hiked the Grand Canyon last summer. Our kids have their dad back.
It all started with love—and the desperate need to save my husband's life. We continue to thrive on our love and passion for helping families like ours. If you or someone you love is dealing with dangerously high blood pressure, know that myself and our entire team will treat you like family and do everything in our power to help you avoid the pain and terror we went through.
