        So just a new way to push #medications on people who probably don't need them? #BigPharma#stopit 130/80 is NOT high blood pressure!

        Bit of reality. 15%,and rising,of Americans are on #SSRI #antidepressant pills. These cause shocking ills, including: HYPERTENSION BONE LOSS LESS IMMUNITY TO VIRUSES LOSS OF EMPATHY SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION, LOSS OF INTEREST ALCOHOLISM LIVER ISSUES SEROTONIN SYNDROME RISK POLYPHARMACY

        About half the people who take SSRI become chemically dependent. If you've read read the GOP A health plan, you KNOW the GOP health plan flags CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY as a PREEXISTING CONDITION. That disqualifies one for regular insurance, dropping one into FINITE, HIGH RISK POOL.🍃

        Read that list above. Those are life shortening, chronic health problems and risks. US Whites are the main consumers of SSRI. Drs avidly "push" SSRI on patients. US Whites's lifespan plummeted as their SSRI use rose. ALL others' lifespan rose. Simple logic explains what occurs.

        The incentive is money! 1. Insurance provides #PerverseIncentive to falsely diagnose #depression. 2. Chemical dependency = Dr dependency too. 3. Life threatening/shortening ailments from SSRI demand treatment with MORE drugs; more diagnoses&procedures, INCREASING patient's bill.

        All US universities have been increasing their tuition prices. Ed debt hard to pay off. Job security&wages for Americans has fallen off. This makes health insurance harder to come by, and a juicier target for healthcare providers. Getting insurance $, not health, becomes FOCUS.

        So if anyone actually looked at what the AHA was recommending it wants primary care physicians to address lifestyle changes with patients when they hit the stage 1 130/80 phase. It’s about living healthier and avoid hypertensive crisis.... NOT to push medications!!

        Blood pressure fluctuates greatly over the day, best way to get a good measurement is to take the average of a weeks worth of recordings.

        Thanx I didn't know that! I'll write them down in my journal. I've noticed ringing ears in the mornings. I'm worried my daily 2 cups of coffee may be making it worse.

        Hey no probs, hope you make good use of your meter, especially after the report of ramped high blood pressure across the population. Nothing that some good exercise won’t fix though :)

        I started off with 2mile walks, then up to 5mile per day and it has made a considerable difference in my health. Yoga sounds painful to me though 😳 lol

        I'm in constant pain anyway. Yoga is simply slow stretching and focusing on your breathing. Although ppl will argue that point with me. It's not in anyway religious for me. And it's helped my overall pain level.
