Mini strokes are almost undetected, although I have at times noticed problems with speech, or pain in both arms at the same time.

Hypertension is a very common heart condition which causes serious health issues to the people around the globe. Hypertension is usually caused by elevation of blood pressure, and it reduces the efficiency of the heart to pump the blood to other organs and this is due to ventricular hypertrophy. Central BioHub is the leading human biospecimen marketplace and offers around 1500 high quality serum and plasma samples for hypertension research.

Depends exactly which tablets but generally do not take decingestant tablets or pills if you have high blood pressure. The safest type to take is topical nasal sprays as they tend not to affect the whole body like tablets.

Ask your doctor or pharmacist before using a decongestant.

Hypertension can be managed by healthy eating and healthy exercise routines. If this fails, it is possible to ask a doctor for a prescription medication.

My blood pressure is normally low high - 140/90. I received a IV saline solution (water and sodium chloride of 0.90%) a few nights ago and noticed my blood pressure dropped. In the subsequent days, I have been drinking saline water. I am always using sea salt in the water to get the other needed minerals. I am drinking at least 2 quarts of water a day and adding about 1/4 teaspoon to one of the quarts. My blood pressure is 117/78 this morning. I had been told by Dr. Robert Thompson (author of "The Calcium Lie") that I needed to consume sodium. I was hesitant since I was also told that sodium is bad for us. I therefor avoided salt. I now believe the key is being properly hydrated and having the proper balance of water, sodium, and other minerals just as Dr. Robert Thompson writes about.

Mangoes are high in potassium and magnesium as well as contain as many antioxidants as the berries therefore do not contribute to high blood pressure.

It's called "essential" because there is no secondary cause. For example, some people have hypertension because of renal disease, medication side effects, endocrine disorders. If you have hypertension that is not part of some other disorder it is called essential hypertension. A related term would be primary or even idiopathic (no known cause).

Veins don't carry blood at high pressure arteries carry blood at high pressure.

Arteries have a thick, elastic muscle layer that can handle high pressure of the blood flowing through them.

No, it causes low blood pressure

High cholesterol levels, and not enough exercise.

are you still seeing this? I started to see the thread like black string in my right eye. Sometimes its there and sometimes its not.

Protandim acts on the molecular and cellular level to trigger the body to produce superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione and other enzymes that regulate anti-oxidants also know as free radicals. These enzymes naturally decrease as we age. These free radicals, while necessary in small amounts, cause tremendous damage when they are not kept in check. The result of unchecked anti-oxidants is oxidative stress - disease, discomfort, and general malaise. Diabetes is one of many diseases whose side effects are always worse when oxidative stress is higher. Control oxidative stress and your general health is improved. While there is no direct evidence that Protandim decreases the effects of diabetes (yet - studies are ongoing) it is undisputed that Protandim helps check many of the negative effects that are common to diabetes and to oxidative stress.

High Blood Pressure is called the silent killer. Over 65 million adults have High Blood Pressur and the numbers are rising everyday.

A blood pressure reading of 137/78 is not considered high. When the top number is 140 or higher that is considered high blood pressure.

Cushing's Syndrome

It depends on the hypertension medication. If you want a pain killer that does not increase blood pressure, then paracetamol is a good choice. The worst choice would be anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and diclofenac. These medications can increase the blood pressure by themselves. In addition, they tend to interact with hypertension medications. For example, these medications increase the risk of renal failure with ACE-inhibitors and sartans, and may also increase the risk of hyperkalaemia with these medications too. Opioid analgesics do not increase blood pressure, however they may interact with anti-hypertensives that are drowsy, such as methyldopa.

Your best bet is to check with a pharmacist or doctor before using anything because it can get very complex.

Secondary hyptertension is caused by some other medical problem, such as a kidney disorder or endocrine disorder.

atrial natriuretic peptide

Varies quite a bit, BUT

1. anytime you experience orthostatic hypotention (light headedness on standing) OR

2. a BP reading of below about 90/50

you should suspect low bp.
