It is very easy to come out of you Doctors Surgery (or Healthcare Practitioners Surgery) after you have been diagnosed with High Blood Pressure and admit defeat totally.
It is the easiest option to take, to just sit back and say to yourself “OK, I’ll have to come to terms with the pills then” but why should you when with a little bit of effort you can control this condition that you have?
It is probably the hardest of the options placed in front of you but isn’t the end result worth it?
It all really boils down to how badly you want it?
If your High Blood Pressure is largely brought about by being slightly over weight then isn’t the bonus of not only looking and feeling better when you lose the pounds but you actually feel a lot better from the inside out as well?
Believe me it does feel good and you do feel great afterwards.
The one important thing that you have to try understand right from the start is what are the main contributory factors that brought about the High Blood Pressure in the first place? This may not always be totally possible to find out and it might indeed be almost impossible to get by without some form of medication for the rest of your life but it is a target that is well worth aiming for.
In my case when I was diagnosed with High Blood Pressure my initial Blood Pressure reading was 216 over 160! A little on the high side I must admit and looking back on it, being told of how high my high blood pressure was at the time made me feel slightly intimidated if not a little worried.
