Important to know for your next trip to a Dr: the blood pressure parameters for diagnosis and treatment of hypertension have changed.
You are now more than likely to be given a drug than ever before.
1. Blood pressure is static. It changes. What may be high once, may only be once.
2. The reason why to change these standards now is for a different reason other than preventing a heart attack.
3. The heart and circulation have been on the skids the last few years. The scramble is on to ‘find a root cause’. Ha!
4. Patching up what has been old dogma is not the way to approach today.
Pay attention!
