Cardiovascular Disease is a Seriously Big Problem!!

By the year 2015 20 million people will die from cardiovascular disease. At present the World Health Organisation reports cardiovascular diseases the number 1 cause of death worldwide.
Main causes of death are heart attacks and strokes. Primary risk factors from the disease include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes. Factors that influence cardiovascular disease are being overweight,smoking, excessive alcohol intake to name a few.People hear the words high blood pressure that much these days that they become quite immune to the term. What's worse is the growing acceptance of going straight onto medication to control it.

High blood pressure can be reduced quite quickly with a few simple lifestyle changes. The simplest being a brisk 30 minute walk every day. This can reduce blood pressure for up to 22 hours. Keep on increasing intensities and so on in no time you can be off medication and back to normal. Dietary improvements need to be made also. High blood pressure doesn't show symptoms and can make a hell of a mess to your arteries. I have heard one expert comparing arteries of a person with high blood pressure to a road during heavy winter rains littered with potholes and dirt. Regular medical check ups and following these few simple guidelines if high blood pressure is a concern to you will ease your worries over the condition.

Getting a medical check up is one. Include resistance training into your routine if not immediately, do it as your fitness increases. Most importantly either reduce stress levels in your life. By learning to manage it better or eradicating stress causing activities.
