Hypertensive Patients Face Higher Risk of Death

Monday, February 4th, 2013
The last century has seen a rise in hypertension, with almost one-third of Americans having elevated blood pressure. While not all require medication and diet to keep it in check, overall care has improved, as have death rates from hypertension and related diseases. But those patients treated for hypertension are still facing higher mortality rates than their healthier counterparts.

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a major risk factor for heart attacks, strokes, heart and kidney failure or even death, claiming the lives of nearly 500,000 Americans every year. Blood pressure is the force created by blood pushing against the walls of arteries. When the pressure is too forceful, it creates high blood pressure, known as hypertension, which may add potential risk of damage to the heart, arteries, and other organs. Many people suffer from hypertension without knowing it because it has no symptoms. Hypertension is more common in men than women, in blacks than whites and in people over the age of 65.

Saturday, October 13th, 2012

TUESDAY, Jan. 25 (HealthDay News) — Higher indoor temperatures during the winter may be contributing to rising rates of obesity in the United States and other developed countries, according to a new British study.

Reduced exposure to cold may affect the ability to maintain a healthy weight by minimizing the need for energy expenditure to stay warm, as well as reducing the body’s capacity to produce heat, said the researchers.

They found that winter indoor temperatures in the United States and the United Kingdom have increased over the past few decades, which means people are spending more time in milder temperatures.

Daily Diet: Are All Iron Supplements the Same?

Thursday, April 4th, 2013

Generally, Americans get their daily requirement of iron from their diet. For those who regularly enjoy red meat, eggs, dark leafy greens, enriched cereals, legumes, or everyone’s favorite—liver and onions—there should not be a need for any type of iron supplement. Additionally, many multivitamins include iron in their formula, which also provides your RDA (recommended dietary allowance). However, iron deficiency can be found in menstruating women as well as children, pregnant women, and people taking drugs that reduce stomach acid.
