Three Underlying Causes of Hypertension

Today, I beg you to let go of prejudgments and propaganda produced by the traditional health business and apply your common sense. That's the one thing that never lies.

Why do I ask you to do that?

There is a lot of propaganda going on in the health business. After all, it is a business. And what do they want you to believe?

They try to convince you, the only effective method to deal with hypertension is using prescription drugs. Other things, like exercising and changing diet, may be dealt with in a paragraph or two. But the main focus is on the important of medications.

And like it wasn't enough to be put on medication. They also claim, you'll have to be on these medication ( and suffer all the side effects) for the rest of your life.

And what do they claim to be the cause for hypertension?

No1 ... They don't know

No2 ... Genetics

No3 ... Other illnesses

And one more time, the treatment...

DRUGS, DRUGS, and again DRUGS!

As you see, even if the medical business admits that they don't know the cause for hypertension most of the time, they refuse to even discus any other treatment than medications.

But if you apply your common sense, you'll see in a second what really causes high blood pressure.

Here it comes... You've probably often experienced your blood pressure ski-rock. And I bet you, whatever you were dealing with at that time was very stressful. Wasn't it?

Your body is actually doing exactly what it should be doing when it raises your blood pressure. In a stressful situation, your body goes into so called flight or fight mood.

This is an essential mechanism to deal with dangerous situation. This is the mechanism our forefathers depended on to run away from or fight predators. When you go into the flight or fight mood, your blood pressure rises and your muscles get tense.

It isn't your body that's dysfunctional, it's the world we live in. We're faced with stressful situations, even life threatening situations, every day. In the big cities, surrounded by people we don't know. They may be murderers for all we know. Our being is threatened.

We have the internal pressure of reaching "a life standard". And the dread of not being able to fulfill it. Money dread is probably the biggest stress factor in the modern world and most likely kills more people than any other thing.

This is only an example. Anything you're stressed about will roar your blood pressure. And most people have these nagging, worrying thoughts all day and all night.

So what can you do? There is very limited chance to drastically change the world. But you can take a few minutes brake!

And it's actually quite easy. Giving your mind a few minutes focused brake is all it needs to recover. Your blood pressure drops drastically during these few minutes and stays down for a long time afterwards. You'll feel relax and happy.

The best part is how quickly this works. Even people suffering from hyper high blood pressure are usually off medications and back to normal pressure within a week of working my exercises.

You can do the same.
