BLOOD PRESSURE

Alzheimer’s is something that is very scary because there isn’t a lot of information out there to
tell us how you can get it or where it comes from. And there certainly isn’t a miracle cure for
Alzheimer’s. If you are going to get it, you probably will, and there might not be much that you
can do about it.
However, when it comes to high blood pressure, it might indeed be a contributing factor. This is
mainly because high blood pressure does damage to everything in your body, including the way
that your brain functions. If you can find some ways to keep your blood pressure down, you are
going to have less of a chance of doing damage to your brain, and that might indeed keep you
Alzheimer’s free.
There are several things that you can do for yourself when it comes to getting your blood
pressure down. First of all you should be sure that your diet is one that contributes to lower
blood pressure. Fatty foods and rich creams have a higher chance of clogging your arteries, and
if this happens, you are going to have your heart working harder to pump the blood through
those clogged arteries. When your heart has to work harder, it is going to mean that you have
high blood pressure. And, as everyone knows, this is not good for you overall.
In order to keep your blood pressure down, make sure that you are eating foods that are low in
fat and cholesterol. If you work with your doctor to develop a plan as far your eating goes, he or
she will be able to take care of you and help you take care of yourself. Talking to your doctor in
this case is important because your doctor is the person who knows the most about your health
and how your body works and can monitor both your Alzheimer’s and your blood pressure.
