Weight Loss and Hypertension / High Blood Pressure Concerns

The loss of even a small amount of weight can significantly decrease numerous health problems. Getting yourself to a healthy weight can also eliminate some health issues you may already have.  

High blood pressure, also known has hypertension, affects 25% of adults. It is a major cause of heart and kidney disease, stroke and heart failure, and a significant contributor to the onset of diabetes but is treatable through weight loss, good nutrition, exercise and other food and lifestyle changes.
