The results were true regardless of whether children were taking medications for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, which can increase blood pressure. The researchers had previously shown that kids with high blood pressure perform worse on tests of mental performance than those without ...
I'm 46 and was beginning to have high blood pressure issues. When my doctor increased my meds a second time, I decided to take things seriously.With a heart attack, I would either die, or not. But a stroke would be a whole different story I wanted to avoid. It was my good fortune...
natural foods was associated with elevated DBP in adolescent girls, which was in part due to high fructose levels in these foods categories. The consumption of natural foods containing fructose, such as whole fruits, does not impact blood pressure and should continue to remain a healthy dietary ...
Blood pressure (BP) determines whether a person has hypertension and offers implications as to whether he or she could be affected by cardiovascular disease.

“Ideally, we would have drugs that lower blood pressure but don’t turn off all the effects of the receptor,” Wingler said. The researchers from Duke, Stanford, UCLA and Harvard used a technique called double electron-electron resonance spectroscopy in order to map the shape of the recep...
between maternal prepregnancy BMI and offspring cardiometabolic outcomes (birth weight, BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure, and retinal microcirculation parameters) at age 4 to 6 years and assessed how the associations with blood pressure and retinal parameters were explained by child’s ...
So you might be surprised to find that twelve weeks of mango consumption reduced blood sugar in arandomized trial. Not only that, the mango didn’t even come in the form of whole fruit, but rather in a quickly digested freeze-dried powder form (which would not be the choice of glycemic...
Currently, doctors assess the likelihood of patients suffering heart problems by looking at factors including weight, blood pressure, age and cholesterol (胆固醇) levels. However, blood protein analysis can provide more accurate clues to the state of a person’s health. The technology was found to...
