Asmongold has opened up with viewers, sharing some of his health struggles as of late and vowing to get better by improving his diet. “I’ve had very bad stress problems a lot,” Asmongold said, admitting his method of dealing with stress was to “ignore it” and continue onwards “no matter what”. However, this time was different.
Getting candid on camera , Asmon revealed he had gone to the emergency room recently after ending one of his Twitch streams early due to feeling “uncomfortable”. Specifically, the streamer felt a “discomfort” in his chest, resulting in him having an electrocardiogram (EKG). While the results came back showing everything was “okay”, Asmon was found to have “very high” blood pressure.
To address the health issues he was facing, the streamer had to “ dial back a lot of the stress “, resulting in fewer streams as he worked on bringing his blood pressure back down from the 170s. Some of the other methods to do so included exercising “every day” and changes to his diet: “I ordered protein bars and we’re drinking water now in between soda.” Asmongold hoped that by switching up what food he consumed and where he obtained hydration from, he could avoid having to take medication.
“People that go on medication die, in my opinion,” the streamer said, calling the idea “terrifying” but determined to “overcome” the issue. “I think that the human body is made to last, it’s made to endure, and I’m 34.” Havi.
