High blood pressure or hypertension, puts millions of people at risk for heart disease, stroke, and other complications. This high blood pressure book will help you take charge of your health by providing you with easy-to-follow tips and advice on how to lower blood pressure naturally, how to work with your doctors, and empower you to actively improve your health.

In the United States, nearly one-half of all adults over the age of 20 have high blood pressure, yet less than one-half of them have their blood pressure controlled. High blood pressure is called the "silent killer" because there are often no symptoms long before it causes serious damage to your body.

This silent killer has a domino effect, knocking down your health. It does this by putting strain on your heart, brain, kidneys, eyes, and lower extremities.

There is good news — even if you have uncontrolled blood pressure, you may still be able to avoid these awful life-altering situations. Awareness and attention can go a long way in preventing or successfully treating hypertension.

Under Pressure: A Guide to Controlling High Blood Pressure provides easy-to-follow information and resources to improve your health and make better choices—for you and your loved ones.
