Dear Reader,
High blood pressure is a common yet serious medical condition. Nearly half the adults in the United States have high blood pressure and the condition, also known as hypertension, contributes to more than 670,000 deaths each year. It's called the "silent killer" because it develops with no signs or symptoms — you may not know that you have the condition until after it has caused serious damage.
Inside this book you’ll find the following and much more: - Who is at risk
- Diagnosis methods and treatments
- Advice on diet, movement and weight loss
- The right medication for you
- Ways to prevent conditions associated with hypertension
- How to reach and maintain a healthy blood pressure
Don’t worry if you currently have high blood pressure, you can still live a long, healthy life. Order Mayo Clinic on High Blood Pressure today and learn ways you can control your blood pressure — and your future. |
