High Blood Pressure

High Blood Pressure, also known as hypertension, affects more than 65 million Americans and is known as the silent killer because many don’t experience any symptoms at all. If left untreated, hypertension contributes to thousands of death every year, mostly due stroke, heart attack, heart failure, and kidney disease. The good news is that successful treatment of hypertension can greatly reduce your risk.
