Those side effects while somewhat daunting didn't even compare with these:  "depression, heart palpitations, impotence, damage to the liver and kidneys..."  

I heard something mentioned about those with diabetes, pregnant women and then they wrapped things up very neatly by advising that there were "practical ways to help you cope."

And maybe they are.  But I'm puzzled at how much benefit one gets from impotence and liver damage.  

Blood pressure drugs absolutely do have documented facts supporting their effectiveness.  I just have to wonder if that should be the end of the story or just part of it.

Some of the most common high blood pressure medicines are diuretics. Hypertension medications such as diuretics flush the body of salts by creating a demand for frequent urination. Along with the flushing of excess salts comes the rapid loss of potassium in some.  

Again, additional medications may be required or a modification of the prescribed dosages may need to occur in order to try to aleviate the various side effects.  

So, the high blood pressure sufferer now gets to be a gout sufferer, a frequent urinater, or even impotent too.

There are almost too many different types of high blood pressure drugs to count.  If each includes an array of possible side effects - the  math becomes too confusing to even try to nail down.

I couldn't help but think about the most simple way to avoid having to worry about this host of other problems.  If we could just head off the hypertension to begin with seems to fit the bill.

After considering all of the possible directions hypertension can take us, maybe taking a long walk will make it to the short list of things that should be done.   

By incorporating my hypertension program into your daily regimen, the resulting blood pressure reading may just amaze you.
