Publisher's summary

This book is for the 100 million people in the US who have high blood pressure. It takes the things you need to know and collects them in one place and makes them easy to understand. Interesting. Doesn’t make you feel that the world’s ending.

In this short audiobook, you’ll learn what high blood pressure is, what causes it, and what you can do about it. You’ll learn about the different kinds of medicines and how they work, which foods to eat and which ones to go easy on, and lifestyle changes that can bring blood pressure down all by themselves (just reducing salt in your diet might do the trick).

It will make talking with your doctor and pharmacist easier. You’ll understand what the nurse means when she says that your blood pressure is 132 over 80.

Ever wondered what a beta-blocker is? We explain it.

Ever wondered what it means for you if both your parents had high blood pressure? You’ll find out.

The truth is, high blood pressure isn’t complicated. It doesn’t have to be scary. It’s something you can do all kinds of things about. You just need to know what they are. That’s why, we created this book. So that more people can. Starting now.
