Last night, the Momdoc company got together to watch the new movie "42" about Jackie Robinson as he entered the major leagues. The movie was incredibly inspiring, showing Jackie's strength as he faced and overcame many challenges.

It was a great reminder of how important it is that we as a community support each other in times of adversity.

In studies, patients who were on the DASH-EP reduced their blood pressure within two weeks. Another eating plan -- DASH-Sodium -- calls for reducing sodium (salt) to 1,500 mg a day (about 2/3 teaspoon). Studies of patients on the DASH-Sodium plan significantly lowered their blood pressure.
