A Natural Approach to High Blood Pressure(Hypertension)High Blood Pressure (hypertension) is the most common chronic disease in older women and asignificant risk factor for stroke, congestive heart disease and kidney disease.Beginning at age 50,hypertension is more common in women than in men and even more so in black women.The mostrecent national recommendations define incipient hypertension at readings of 140/90 mm Hg.Bloodpressure readings fairly consistently above these require treatment.
Risk factors for hypertension include:
Medical conditions such as diabetes mellitus, lipid abnormalities and obesity
Lifestyle habits like sedentarism, increased abdominal body fat, high-fat diets and cigarettesmoking
Family History o f heart disease
Risk factors unique to women include:
Oral contraceptive use
Pregnanc y
Having had both ovaries removed
Premature menopause
Prevention is most important.
Stop smoking.
Get re gular aerob ic exerc ise.
Eat a diet low in saturated fat.
Eat a diet high in fish,who le grains,fruits,vegetab les, legumes,nuts and seeds.
Maintain your optimal body we ight.
Practice good stress management.
Determine your individual risk for cardiovascular disease.
Make an appointment with a knowledgeable health care practitioner for medical history,physical exams,and tests.
After the age of 45,a woman’s annul exam should include a careful examination of theheart; carotid, abdominal, and femoral arteries; the peripheral pulses; and a blood testchecking blood sugar, total cholesterol,HDL,LDL, ratio of total cholesterol to HDL,and triglycerides.For menopausal women, I recommend an annual fasting lipid profilein addition to the annual physical/pelvic exam increasing to two to three times yearly ifabnormal.
Monitor b lood pre ssure regularly.
Annual electrocardiogram(EKG)at age 50;after that,every 3 years minimum.
More sophisticated testing as needed or desired:homocysteine,alpha-lipoprotein A,fibrinogen,ferritin, co-enzyme Q 10, lipid peroxidase, magnesium, glutathione peroxidase, ande cho c a rd io gra m(EC HO).

Not all women need to take hormone replacement therapy; it is important for a few.

Exercise:
Consult a health care provider.
Use caution and moderation.
Begin slowly and increase speed gradually over time. If you have never exercised before, startwith a few minutes each day and increase time gradually every week until you reach 30minute s.
Appropriate exercise includes walking, swimming, biking or working out on an exercisemachine such as a treadmill, stair-climbing machine, rowing machine or stationary cycle atmoderate intensity for 30 minutes daily.
Stress Management:
If we perceive certain events in our lives as stressful, if this perception is extended over timeand we have not learned to cope with it, stress will eventually produce outward manifestationsin our health such as hypertension.Many simple techniques can be effective in managing ourstress and reducing its bad influence.
Deep breathing Exercise
Biofeedback Prayer/Meditation
Yoga Hypnosis
The blood pressure lowering effect of these techniques is not dramatic,but they constitute animportant adjuvant in a holistic program to lower blood pressure and treat and prevent heartdisease.

如今我们网友可能较多的会选择云服务器、VPS主机,对于虚拟主机的话可能很多人不会选择。但是我们有些外贸业务用途的建站项目还是会有选择虚拟主机的。今天看到的Stablehost 商家虚拟主机在黑五期间也有四折优惠,对于这个服务商而言不是特别的喜欢,虽然他们商家和我们熟悉的老鹰主机商有些类似,且在后来老鹰主机改版和方案后,Stablehost 商家也会跟随改版,但是性价比认为不如老鹰主机。这次黑色星期...
