Blood Pressure Down to a Healthy Level - Common Blood Pressure Drugs Cause
Kidney Failure and Death
A
new study out of Great Britain and released by Cambridge University is the
latest in a long list of studies proving the dangers of blood pressure drugs.
It
reveals the alarming connection between a common class of blood pressure medications and kidney
failure – causing death in a big percentage of those who suffer from it.
A
class of blood pressure medication known as ACE
inhibitors, used widely all over the world, was studied in the landmark
research.
Data
that was compared included rates of hospital admission, specifically for renal
(kidney) failure and the use of the popular drugs, taken by more than 5 million
people worldwide.
A
startling, but predictable, trend emerged. More than 58% of the patients
admitted with renal failure were also taking an ACE inhibitor.
While
there are a number of factors that can contribute to renal failure, such as
diabetes, the connection was overwhelming after researchers adjusted for
conditions such as those.
What
was more alarming was that for people whose renal failure ended in death,
researchers found that ACE inhibitor-takers were at 30% increased risk of dying
compared to those who didn’t take the drugs.
While
doctors caution patients to not suddenly stop taking the medication, they do
acknowledge that patients could be weaned of it safely if better alternatives
are available.
And there is one. The safest way to drop blood pressure down to a healthy level at 120/80
– as soon as today – is using the 3 easy blood pressure exercises found here…
Drop
Blood Pressure Down to a Healthy Level - Squeezing Your Blood Pressure Down
(literally)
How
can squeezing something lower blood pressure?
According
to a study published in the Journal
of Hypertension, it’s even more effective than drugs, without the
side effective.
And
it won’t cost you a dime!
The
FDA has even approved a version of this technique.
10-minutes
per day, 3-days per week of handgrip training is enough to moderately reduce high blood pressure levels.
The
technique, considered as isometric training, has been shown to be effective in
several research studies and has led to the release of an FDA-approved blood pressure lowering device known as the
Zona.
However,
many medical experts are claiming that squeezing a rubber ball can have the
same beneficial properties at a fraction of the cost.
It
just can’t be regarded as “FDA approved” because, there really is no device in
place except a small rubber ball.
You
can find rubber balls that fit into your hand in most sports stores for under
$10.
Directions: Hold the rubber
ball in one hand. Squeeze it lightly (50% of maximum strength), hold the
squeeze for 10 second, release for 10 seconds. Repeat for five minutes before
switching over to the other hand.
As
stated before, the rubber squeeze ball exercise provides MODERATE improvements in blood pressure.

Blood Pressure Down to a Healthy Level - How Early Is High Blood Pressure Determined?
Two
new Canadian studies presented at The American Heart Association’s Council on
Hypertension Scientific Sessions, revealed some weird results.
Your
high blood pressure may actually be direct
results of how you were born.
And
it’s probably in a totally different way than you would think.
According
to the first study, people born at or before 29 weeks of pregnancy have smaller
kidneys relative to their body size than those who were born at full term.
They
also tend to have slightly higher blood pressure when they are already
in their 20s.
The
second study also compared pre-term adults in their 20s with full-term adults
at the same age, finding that the cells in their blood vessels were slower to
form colonies and, as a result, that their bodies’ ability to form tiny blood
vessels (called capillaries) was impaired.
Capillaries
are the blood vessels that carry oxygen and nutrients to most of the cells
around your body.
Moreover,
the pre-term adults had higher systolic blood pressure and an enlarged left
ventricle of the heart.
Both
these research teams warn that we should not interpret their results as a
suggestion that all adults who were born pre-term will suffer from high blood pressure and heart disease.
Their results show only a small increase in blood pressure by the time these
people get to their 20s, 5 mmHg to be precise.
While
5 mmHg might not be enough to worry about, the chief researcher in both studies
says that people's blood pressure increases as they age
, and that slightly high blood pressure during our 20s
may turn into seriously elevated blood pressure in our 40s, 50s, and 60s.
