I have just completed a course to help people reduce their blood pressure. Over 90% of people have what is termed as essential hypertension, which means essentially doctors do not know why the blood pressure is raised constantly. Most times medication can be effective in reducing it, but as with any drug, the side effects can be unpleasant and long term which can include dry cough and sexual dysfunctions.
Doctors do like to advise their patients to make some lifestyle changes which would include diet and exercise, but it is not always easy to instantly make changes unless you are motivated. It would appear that a huge amount of Americans over the age of 50 take medication for hypertension and Statins to reduce cholesterol. Stains is now being researched even more and the conclusions are not so good. Of course GPs will say the effects of Stains outweigh the risks of a stroke if your cholesterol is too high, but lifestyle changes can also be of more benefit.
Reducing stress is a valuable tool in the reduction of high BP, and Hypnotension can help with reducing stress and making necessary changes that have less risk
