  • How Much Of A Problem To Society Is High Blood Pressure?
    The effect that high blood pressure has on society as a whole is slightly difficult to quantify. The reason for this difficulty is that no one organisation whether it be a government body or academic medical institution knows entirely and accurately the percentage of people out in society suffering from high blood pressure. All we can deal with are rough estimates and guesses taken from reasonably extensive studies.

    And that my friend is really where we have to leave it. We do not have accurate information as to how many people have got high blood pressure, we have accurate information about how many people have been diagnosed with high blood pressure but that's a different figure.
  • Are We Sitting On Yet Another Health Scare Time Bomb?
    OK listen up folks. Consuming Energy drinks could be bad for High Blood Pressure. This is potentially some interesting stuff in that a study has been published recently that in all essence is actually quite a small study and hence the findings could potentially be open to question but (and this is a big but) could actually grow and have the potential of something quite significant down the line if replicated.

    Phew, that is quite a major sentence (in more ways than one) to try and comprehend so let’s try and break it down into manageable proportions.
  • Start Making Some Lifestyle Changes When You Discover You Have High Blood Pressure.
    I came across a phrase the other day whilst doing some research on some articles about high blood pressure and the phrase was “high blood pressure symptom in man”.

    Now the phrase might be a slightly awkward phrase whilst looking at it from an English-language perspective and would certainly not be one of the search terms that I would definitely use but the key thing that really came to mind here in my mind was that it highlights how possibly confused and poorly served we are when it comes to trying to understand the various symptoms that we think might be indicative of high blood pressure.
  • The Changing Face of High Blood Pressure Treatment
    Doctors and Healthcare Practitioners are slowly but surely changing the way we not only look at high blood pressure but the way we treat the condition when diagnosed.

    According to a study published recently in the Robarts Research Institute in Canada, scientists appear to have developed a simplified and potentially much more effective method of treating high blood pressure.
  • Understanding High Blood Pressure.
    The Phrase High Blood Pressure conjures up a variety of things to all people. Common definitions refer to the condition without referencing to the cause.
  • High Blood Pressure - Understanding the Basics.
    The Phrase High Blood Pressure conjures up a variety of things to all people.In medical terms, hypertension refers to high blood pressure, regardless of the cause.

    Because of the silent and insidious way it works in the background i.e. no symptoms it is referred to as the Silent Killer. If left uncontrolled or untreated then High Blood Pressure can cause a variety of illnesses all of which could kill if left to their own devices. It has been estimated that in the USA there are potentially 50 million sufferers of Hypertension / High Blood Pressure.
  • Constructing a Basic Understanding of High Blood Pressure.
    The Phrase High Blood Pressure conjures up a variety of things to all people. Common definitions refer to the condition without referencing to the cause.
  • Getting to Grips with and Understanding the Basics of High Blood Pressure.
    Hypertension means a great different things to different people. The Common definition refers to High Blood Pressure without alluding to any cause.
  • Your Bed May Be Your Most Underrated Piece of Furniture.
    Okay listen up folks how badly do you feel if you go several days we insufficient sleep? Well according to recent research you may well actually be suffering more than you think. Apparently missing out on sleep can cause the brain to stop producing new cells. Bear this in mind the next time you are out shopping and you are hoping to buy new beds and accessories etc.
  • An Introduction to Treatment for High Blood Pressure
    At one point, Doctors hesitated to prescribe medication for patients with a blood pressure reading of less than 159/99 Hg. This was described as “mild hypertension” and as such not deemed at the time to be dangerous.

    The rationale behind this that Doctors felt that the adverse side effects of the medication used at the time would possibly be of more danger to the patient than the high blood pressure readings.
  • High Blood Pressure and Salt, What is the Big Deal?
    Sodium Chloride (the chemical name for Salt, the culinary cooking condiment not the International Treaty on Weapons limitation) is an essential element in the life of human beings. Most people think of Salt purely in terms of that little white food seasoning found in shakers on virtually very food table the world over.Just how essential is it however?
  • Adopting a better diet for your High Blood Pressure
    Hypertension, Stroke, Heart Disease are common throughout the United States of America and indeed large parts of the Western World. Epidemiologists attribute much of this down to the Western diet.
  • Cardiac Arrest, where Death is not always so sudden?
    We’ve seen it all before, the middle aged victim staggers and clutches his chest, slumps to the floor and expires. A common sight, extremely deadly and as such 20 percent of all deaths in the US apparently are due to sudden cardiac arrest. Such is the lethal effect of these attacks in that apparently barely 5 percent of all those who suffer from them survive.
  • High Blood Pressure, what is it?
    Apparently there is an alarming trend in the rate of High Blood Pressure or Hypertension depending on how you want to view it. After a decline over the past three decades, apparently it is on the increase.

    In the United States of America they reckon that there are a staggering 50 million plus people over the age of six who are sufferers of High Blood Pressure.
  • High Blood Pressure Diet and Vitamins
    2005, the year the worlds fascination with taking Multivitamins died? Sounds controversial I know and may be a slight exaggeration but actually it is not too far from the truth. 2005 and latterly 2006 have not been good years if you happened to be in the Multivitamin Business as not one but a whole series of reports emerged from one Scientific Research Establishment after another about the apparent uselessness of taking mass amounts of Multivitamins as forms of dietary supplements to aid and support a poor dietary regime.

    When you look at it objectively, the daily vitamin pill is no substitute for a well structured and put together diet but as we all know, none of us are perfect when it comes to a healthy intake and sensible eating.
  • The Side Effects of taking ACE Inhibitors for High Blood Pressure
    All forms of medication have downsides if we are really being honest with ourselves. High Blood Pressure Medicine is no different. To be honest as I have covered in other articles with regards to medicine for High Blood Pressure it is very much a case of the lesser of two evils or “damned if you do, damned if you don’t.”
  • The Effects of High Blood Pressure and the side effects of High Blood Pressure Medicine.
    There is no disguising the fact and it is certainly one that should not be denied but there are considerable side effects of both having High Blood Pressure (and these can be lethal) and also considerable side effects of High Blood Pressure Medicine as well.
  • Erectile Dysfunction is it all in the mind or is it a symptom of something else?
    Erectile Dysfunction, a phrase guaranteed to strike fear into the vast majority of men (and women too if surveys are to be believed) is the one thing that nine times out of ten can cause deep long lasting psychological scars if not treated carefully and properly.
  • High Blood Pressure, it could be all in the eyes?
    Even if you think you have 20/20 vision (and especially if you work with Computer screens and Monitors on a daily basis). An eye examination can pick up treatable conditions and deal with them as well as providing an opportunity to spot subtle changes that can be the forerunners of much more dangerous conditions such as High Blood Pressure.
  • Untreated Stress can kill
    Stress can kill you of that there is no doubt. By this I do not mean that it is a great joke and as such can kill you in that way. I am talking here of an involuntary premature short cut to the hereafter (or wherever your faith and belief takes you) that at this moment in time I would not wish on anyone. Stress should not be ignored and certainly not left untreated.
  • Money can’t always buy you Good Health. Taking a view on High Blood Pressure
    In the overall scheme of things you have to put being given a diagnosis of High Blood Pressure into perspective. On the scale of being told you have terminal and potentially fatal illness High Blood Pressure has to be looked at in the right way.
  • Dealing with Stress Related High Blood Pressure
    “Everyone needs some stress. It is what makes us get up in the morning and do the things we do. It makes us achieve things and get from A to B and in doing so our Blood Pressure has to rise – it is part of the normal way of things”.
  • High Blood Pressure an Equal Opportunity Condition
    At the risk of sounding sarcastic and being hounded by the feminist lobby – High Blood Pressure is what they call an “Equal Opportunity Disease” and by that I mean that it does exactly what the description says – it can hit anyone of any gender at any one time!
  • Want to lower your High Blood Pressure? Get yourself a dog!
    Pssst, want to positively do something about your High Blood Pressure? Get yourself a pooch and walk it!
  • Coffee, Good or Bad for the Blood Pressure?
    Caffeine, Good or Bad for the Blood Pressure? This is another one of those “is it or isn’t it” issues that probably by and large depends on a whole variety of associated issues but as it is one of the most regular of all of our queries I thought I would go ahead and try and provide some form of opinion.
