It’s a well known fact that blood pressure medications come with a row of both minor and major side effects.
But one of the most commonly prescribed blood pressure drugs has now been proven to double your risk of serious mental disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder.
It doesn’t get much more serious than that.
Scientists have understood for years that there is some kind of relationship between cardiovascular disease and mood disorders like depression and anxiety disorder.
Following this lead, scientists from the University of Glasgow wondered whether some of the most commonly prescribed drugs for high blood pressure could have effects on mental health too. They conducted an investigation, publishing it in the journal Hypertension earlier this year.
First, they collected the medical records of 144,066 people between 40 and 80 years of age.
After observing them for five years, the researchers noticed devastating effects of those taking one of the most prescribed blood pressure medications.
Patients on beta blockers were more than twice as likely as non-drug takers to have been hospitalized with mental disorders.
The most common mental conditions for which the study’s subjects were hospitalized were major depression and bipolar disorder, two serious conditions from which many people struggle to recover for years.
Ironically, our blood pressure exercises have exactly the opposite effect. They’re relaxing and calming and our readers often report just how happy and great they feel when they use them.
Best of all, they’ll drop your blood pressure below 120/80 – starting today…
