Dear Reader,
An estimated 1.28 billion adults worldwide have high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. And about half don't even know they have it. 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 to your organs.
With Mayo Clinic on High Blood Pressure at your side, you will have the resources needed to prevent and manage hypertension. In this book, Gary L. Schwarz, M.D., draws on his 40-plus years of studying, researching and treating people with high blood pressure to tell you how. By taking specific steps, you can live well with high blood pressure – and even keep it from ever forming.
Inside this book you’ll find the following and much more: How it develops and who is at risk Diagnosis methods and treatments The right medication for you Ways to prevent conditions associated with hypertension Advice on diet, movement and weight loss How to reach and maintain a healthy blood pressure
Don't worry if you currently have high blood pressure, you can take action to correct it and improve your health, all with simple, everyday choices. Order Mayo Clinic on High Blood Pressure today and learn ways you can control your blood pressure — and live well for years to come. |
