High blood pressure, or hypertension, is one disease where your actions can really make you sorry. Except in cases where aging or genetics are at fault, people with high blood pressure usually have no one to blame but themselves. For years, doctors have been lecturing about leading a healthier lifestyle, yet Americans, including children, grow unrelentingly fatter every year. Obese, of course, is the PC term for it, but call it what you will, it is claiming Americans by the millions.

We have been warned-repeatedly. There are so many bad behaviors underlying high blood pressure, yet Americans seem unwillingly to give them up until disaster strikes. We love our cigarettes, caffeine, alcohol, salty snacks, and fast food. We would much rather sit on our sofas, pop potato chips and candy, and watch other people sweat on Biggest Loser. We run here and there, work way too many hours at stressful jobs, and struggle to keep things clicking at home. Then we have the temerity to be surprised when our hearts give out.

As there are no symptoms to this disease, it has earned the sinister name “the silent killer.” It is in every person’s best interest to have regular blood pressure checks. High blood pressure can be treated if you are aware you have it. For some, major lifestyle changes in the areas mentioned above can make a difference. Regular aerobic exercise, for example, is a proven way to lower your heart rate and prolong your life. Many people may fail to achieve results without medication or some kind of supplements. One thing is unavoidable, this is not something you want to ignore.

With one in three Americans walking around with high blood pressure, one third of them unaware, it pays to be cautious. Do not wait until you are having a heart attack to learn you suffer from this killer. It is scary to know you have high blood pressure, but it is scarier NOT to be diagnosed. In this day of modern technology, you need not be a statistic.
