“Intensive blood pressure management substantially reduced the risk of all-cause dementia by 15% and that of cognitive impairment by 16%.“

Our bodies can’t handle the chronic high pressure. Of course organs will be hurt, including our brain.

There are ways to reverse arterial plaques and further bring down blood pressure naturally, but take the drugs if you can’t address it naturally.

One major study also showed that those with higher blood pressure lived longer. I don’t have the study handy, but I suspect that it was those at the higher end of the ‘normal’ range at the time that lived longest, so maybe something like 145/92 or so.

Everything comes down to what you feed your body on a regular basis and how much you move on a weekly basis.

I heard that dementia is now being called “diabetes type 3”.

Stop the sugar, eat whole foods and get out and MOVE.
