Are Fatal Heart Conditions Linked To High Blood Pressure?

Online, October 9, 2013 (Newswire.com) - More than 70 percent of Americans who have had a stroke or heart attack have also been diagnosed with high blood pressure. This statistic has made high blood pressure one of the most fatal conditions in the country, taking roughly 350,000 lives each year.

However, newer studies released suggest that heart diseases and nervous breakdowns are not the only high blood pressure side effects. Uncontrolled blood pressure has also been linked to diabetes, kidney problems, and aneurysms.

These treatments can also help prevent high blood pressure side effects from developing. Aside from relying on treatments, McDonald along with other health experts are also adovcating for a healthy lifestyle in ensuring the no other health complications will arise from high blood pressure.
