VedicAtherosclerosis
Risk Factors
These risk factors raise your chances of having atherosclerosis:
- having high blood cholesterol, especially high LDL ("bad cholesterol") and low HDL ("good cholesterol") levels
aging and being male (women are affected more after menopause)- having close relatives who had heart disease or a stroke at a relatively young age
- having high blood pressure
- having diabetes
- smoking
- having trouble managing stress
- being obese
- being physically inactive
The more risk factors you have, the more likely it is that you have atherosclerosis. Talk with your health professional about your risks for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.
Do You Have High Blood Pressure?
Then you need to read this book, by New Zealand author, Dr. David Lovell-Smith.
In this book Dr. David Lovell-Smith describes how his patients successfully used diet, lifestyle changes and Transcendental Meditation to bring their blood pressure down.
This book offers new hope and insight for those with high blood pressure but it is not for hypertensives alone. The knowledge which Dr Lovell-Smith presents in his book is timely and relevant, and its exposition is long overdue.
