“Uncle Bayo’s Blood Pressure Story”

You see Uncle Bayo?
He was doing everything right.

→ He stopped adding salt to his food.
→ He stopped eating suya.
→ He left Maggi alone.
→ He even tried drinking bitter leaf water. (you know it’s serious when a man drinks that thing willingly.)

And every single morning, without fail, he took his BP medicine.
He never missed a day.

But every time he checked his blood pressure?
It was still HIGH.

165/100. 170/105.
“No change.”

Uncle Bayo was frustrated. Tired. Confused.

He started wondering:
“Is it jazz? Is it spiritual? Is it village people?
Why won’t my blood pressure go down??”

Nobody told him the truth:
Inside Uncle Bayo’s body, there was a stubborn little boss called ALDOSTERONE.

Aldosterone’s job is simple:
→ Tell the kidneys: “Keep some salt, throw away the rest.”

But Uncle Bayo’s aldosterone?
That thing had gone rogue.
It turned into a hoarder.
Holding all the salt. Keeping all the water.
“Don’t throw anything away! Keep everything! Store it!”

And because of that,
→ Uncle Bayo’s body kept filling up with salt.
→ And with water.
→ And with pressure.

Every day, his blood vessels were like balloons getting tighter and tighter.

That’s why,
→ Even though he wasn’t eating salt…
→ Even though he was drinking bitter leaf…
→ Even though he was taking his BP meds…

The pressure refused to come down.

Because it wasn’t just the food.
It wasn’t just “salt sensitivity.”
It was hormone sensitivity.
It was aldosterone-induced hypertension.

Until one day, a smart doctor tested him and said:
“Uncle Bayo… your aldosterone is too high. That’s why your BP won’t drop.”

They gave him a special medicine to calm the aldosterone down.
And guess what?
The pressure finally came down.

And Uncle Bayo cried.
Not just because of relief…
But because nobody told him this from the beginning.

Listen.
If you’re cutting salt, taking your medicine, doing everything right…
And your BP is still refusing to come down…
It’s time to check your aldosterone.

It might not be the salt on your plate.
It might be the salt your body refuses to let go of.

Ask questions. Get tested. Don’t suffer in silence.
