The Most Fun Way to Heal High Blood Pressure Permanently

High blood pressure is ultimately fatal, so we need to reduce it as quickly as possible.

But if the task is too difficult or boring (like having to give up all the food you love), people are automatically going to resist it.

That’s why scientists in Boston, Massachusetts, have come up with a fun way to lower blood pressure—and it touches the competitive side in all of us.

Many people think of doctors as superhumans who can memorize thousands of pages of medical texts, and we need them to come up with the right answer every time.

The pressure that we place on our doctors prompted scientists in Boston, MA, to investigate the best way for doctors to learn complex medical facts.

The study, published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, recruited 111 new doctors for the test. The information they wanted them to learn consisted of 32 descriptions of patients with high blood pressure, followed by multiple-choice questions with information on treating them.

The study participants were divided into two groups. One group was sent to a website where they had to read the information and answer the questions.

The second group was told to play an interactive game that contained the same information.

They received their questions via email every three days and could retire a question only by answering it correctly twice. They could also compare their scores with those of their peers.

Once they had learned the information and met the real patients, the traditional learners required 148 days to lower each patient’s blood pressure, while the game players took only 142 days.

The scientists attributed the success of the game players to three factors.

First, the game was consistent with an educational theory, called spaced education, whereby information is presented and reinforced at regular intervals.

Second, the fact that game players could compare scores and compete with each other helped.

Finally, the new doctors said that, instead of sitting at their computers for a conventional study session, they could play the game anywhere, such as while waiting in line at Starbucks.

The bad news is that what the doctors were learning was how to use dangerous drugs with loads of side effects to force blood pressure down.

What if the same doctors were taught how to use natural interventions like diet and lifestyle changes to achieve the same goals?

The real result of this study for me is simply the fact that if I want to achieve a goal, it has to be fun. I think that’s the main reason that so many people succeed with our blood pressure exercises.

Not only are they effective and easy, but they are also fun and enjoyable. Learn more about our blood pressure exercises and try them out for yourself here…
