Boil 1 tablespoon of buckwheat in 500ml of water until 125ml is left. Buckwheat contains rutin, a substance which lowers the blood pressure by helping the capillaries to circulate blood more effectively. Remove the buckwheat and mix the remaining liquid with the following juice.

Add a pinch each of salt, black pepper and ground roasted cumin seeds, and 1 teaspoon paprika. Eat ½ cos lettuce while drinking the juice. The outer leaves are more important than the inner.

Eat the boiled buckwheat during the day.

Prevention

Learn how to breathe out more effectively. Drink at least 2 litres of liquid a day. Avoid tinned and processed food. Eat raw foods instead. Add to your diet more bitter foods such as endives, bitter almonds, herbs, dandelion, gourds and sage tea.
