What your doctor doesn’t know about high blood pressure

What your doctor doesn’t know about high blood pressure

According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, currently nearly half of American adults have high blood pressure, with readings consistently at or above 130/80.

Note that the hypertension population got a big “boost” back in 2017 when the high blood pressure threshold was changed from 140/90 down to 130/80. When that occurred, the percentage of American adults with hypertension jumped from 32 percent under the old guidelines up to nearly 46 percent!

If you have a decent diet, do you need a multi-vitamin?

If you have a decent diet, do you need a multi-vitamin?

  Now there is a good question that does not have a simple answer!
