We are leaving in crowd environment surrounded by people and each of them live his own life, and have his own story… Some of them are happy and optimistic and others sad and I wouldn’t say pessimistic but more realistic, some times it seems like even too realistic for me. Each of those stories may influent or affects our lives in different ways. Happy stories influent us less than the sad ones which have more powerful impact on us.
It turns out that illnesses and diseases influent our lives more than other causes since they alter lives; they cause to significant changes and claim the precious cost…
High blood pressure or Hypertension (HBP), known also as the “Silent Killer”, because of the silent nature of the disease affects the lives of millions of people and become to one of the most dangerous diseases in modern world. In most cases, as the American Heart Association claims, “high blood pressure is not a disease of separate identity but usually appears as symptom of other disease, and in most cases of high blood pressure there is no one identifiable cause”.
Statistics of disease are terrifying: it claims a new victim every 35 seconds and the cardiovascular disease kills almost 2500 Americans each day by heart attacks, stroke, kidney or heart failures…
When it doesn’t kills it does cause irreversible damages to the body organs; to brain, heart, kidneys, eyes, causes to various vascular diseases.
Controlling and normalizing the blood pressure and keeping it close to the normal range is easily done by modern “wonder pills and drugs”. There is a wealth of the prescription medications that High blood sufferer may utilize to treat Hypertension: kind of blockers, diuretics, vasodilators, inhibitors… They are very effective to maintain blood pressure, to lower it and keep it down.
