Mild Cognitive Impairment, or MCI, is a disorder that is frequently the harbinger of Alzheimer’s and other dementia diseases.
Recently, researchers have found a direct link between high blood pressure and MCI.
This is especially disturbing since more than 50% of people over 50 have high blood pressure.
Researchers at Emory University’s School of medicine looked at study participants across two years. Their memory skills were tracked alongside blood pressure readings.
What the researchers found was that in people who had at least two or more readings indicating hypertension, or high blood pressure, their cognitive and memory skills declined more than their non-hypertensive counterparts.
More than 1300 people were followed for the two-year study, and those with the highest blood pressure were the ones whose declines in performance on standard psychological exams were the greatest.
The study underscores the importance of getting chronic high blood pressure under control early, and keeping it at healthy levels.

THE MEDICAL MAFIA'S MONEY MAKING MACHINE. (DISEASE)
The "Global Corruption Report 2006," sponsored by the German Government, shows that medical care is one of the most corrupt industries in the world – precisely because of the huge amount of money involved. Bribery of regulators and medical professionals, manipulation of research findings, medicines and supplies going adrift, corruption at the procurement stage, and the over-billing of insurance companies are all daily practices in medicine. The report estimates that the world spends more than three TRILLION dollars a year on health services. And although much of this goes into the pockets of the corrupt, they are rarely found out. It is impossible to put a figure on corrupt practices. Medicine is so inept that a great deal of money is lost through inefficiences and honest mistakes, says the report.
The "Journal of the American Medical Association" estimated that drug companies spend $13,000 dollars a year on every doctor in order for them to prescribe one drug or another. With a spend of $19 Billion a year on marketing to doctors, this is considerably more than they spend on research.
THE HEALTH INDUSTRY FEEDS OFF ILLNESS.
The ultimate purpose of any business is to generate profits. Medicine is a business just like any other: it derives its income from the sale of treatments for disease, which in most cases means the sale of drugs. If an industry profits from something, then it has a vested interest in that something continuing. So the reseach into the 'Prevention' of disease is discouraged and ignored in medicine; the focus is on treatment only.
And if the treatment causes damaging side effects, they will give you another treatment for those side effects. And if the disease does not go away (and it probably won't as the cause is rarely addressed), then they will gladly refill your prescription. And if nothing seems to be working, don'r worry, they are about to announce that they are coming out with a new, better drug next month. ( It will probably be only a slight variation on the formula for an existing one, but this will mean they can get a new patent.) Their PR department will spin a story of a revolutionary break-through for the newspapers, who will trumpet the good news on the front page. As a consequence, the public will be convinced that this new drug will bring them health, wealth, and happiness, and they will all demand it.
All ill-health has the potential to not just make money, but to make it by the barrow load. Almost daily, it seems, we hear of medical break-throughs that herald an end to one disease or another. It's been the same for decades, and it's a fraud and a delusion. In spite of the 'triumphs' of medical science, medicine is far from decreasing human suffering as much as practitioners would like us to believe.

DISEASE MONGERING.
"A lot of money can be made from healthy people who believe they are sick. Pharmaceutical companies SPONSOR diseases and PROMOTE them to prescribers (Doctors) and consumers."
The above taken from an article in the BRITISH MEDICAL JOURNAL of 2002.
I find under articles like these they put 3 exercises to lower high blood pressure, but then you click it, and you read all kinds of stories, but in order to find out what they are, you have to PAY for it, why not just give it freely and quit making these doctors rich off of poor who need the simple 3 exercises. Just tell us what you have to do freely, at no cost to anyone.
