WHAT YOU CAN D0 FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

"More persons are comer-nod about the actual height of their b1°°d Pressure than with the potential dangers of the gtomig bomb." I em quoting from a book for laymen by Dr. John Strain. crohn entitled ‘What You Can D0 About High Blood Pressure."

When we realize that sudden deaths in middlensged men and women are caused by the breaking of a blood vessel in the heart or brain. it is only natural for so many to be worried about blood pressure. What most of us fail to remember. however, is that blood pressure is necessary to life, and there are times when high blood pressure actually pulls us through an illness when low blood pressure would have failed to do so. Low pressure may prolong life and pre- vent brain strokes (apoplexy) and heart strokes (coronary thrombos- is). but the individual with lolv pressure usually is lacking in pep or vigor.

Another point mentioned, with which all physicians will agree. is

that men and women are too “blood pressure conscious” and want the blood pressure taken
