High blood pressure and being overweight. I read several articles that were very informative.


Hello, my name is Jason Sunnarborg and this is my prsonal blog about my Health and Nutrition business. I will be updating this blog every day or two and I know you will find the information I share to be interesting. If you ever have any questions or comments about any of these topics, feel free to contact me through my websites or just call me.


WHAT IS HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE(HYPERTENSION)


High blood pressure is a condition where the force of the blood against the artery walls is high enough that may eventually cause serious health problems. This is actually a fairly common problem and can lead to heart attacks, strokes heart disease or even heart failure.


Blood pressure is determined by how much blood your heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries. The more blood your heart pumps and the narrower your arteries, the higher the blood pressure.


HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE


Your blood pressure can be high for years without any symptoms. Left uncontrolled for too long cna lead to very serious health issues. There are no real tell-tale symptoms of high blood pressure. The best way to find out is to have a licensed physician check for it. The recommendation is to get checked at least once a year.


WHY IS WEIGHT SO IMPORTANT


It is very simple actually. The more you weigh, the more blood you need to supply oxygen and nutrients to your body's tissues. As the volume of blood pumped through your arteries and blood vessels increases, so does the pressure on your artery walls.


CAN HERBALIFE HELP


Remember, I am not a qualified professional and cannot diagnose nor treat high blood pressure. That said, absolutely YES, Herbalife can help. Healthy weight loss may be one of the most beneficial approaches to lowering your high blood pressure. In fact, even losing 5 pounds can lower your blood pressure. I can definitely attest to this. My father has high blood pressure and is overweight. He has gotten on Herbalife and is steadily losing weight at a nice pace. Not only is looking and feeling better, he has had to have his blood pressure medication adjusted several times now because of his improving blood pressure. It is highly recommended that as you lose weight you have a licensed physician monitor your blood pressure. That way adjustments to your medications can be made as needed. There have actually been some recorded testimonials where people have been completely taken off thier medications once they have reached thier idea weight. Once again, I must caution, only let a licensed physician determine what adjustments to make to your medications. Do not make those determinations yourself.
