Review
"Doctors William Manger and Ray Gifford Jr. are well-known and experienced clinicians in the field of hypertension. After many years of their independent medical practice they have been confronted by a multitude of questions by their patients. 100 Questions and Answers about Hypertension organizes these questions and provides, in easy to understand answers, their considered responses in a non-controversial and straight forward manner." Edward D. Frohlich, MD, Alton Ochsner Distinguished Scientist. Alton Ochsner Medical Foundation, Editor-in-Chief, Hypertension

"With 100 Questions and Answers about Hypertension you, and your doctor, have what it takes to prevent and control high blood pressure. We are indebted to Doctors Gifford and Manger, two outstanding scientists, physicians and teachers for taking the time to help everyone understand this important health issue." Edward J. Roccella, PhD, MPH, Coordinator, National High Blood Pressure Education Program

" This book, written by two experts in the field of hypertension with almost 100 years of experience between them, is a storehouse of information that will be useful to all who have (or live with people who have) high blood pressure. The chapters are brief, easily understood and thorough in covering every important feature of this condition. The advice is practical and attainable, reflecting the authors' immense clinical experience." Norman M. Kaplan, MD, Professor of Medicine, University of Texas

Product Description
100 questions about hypertension are answered in a crystal clear and concise manner by two very distinguished experts in the field of high blood pressure. The questions concern hypertension prevention, diagnosis, drug and non-drug treatment, complications, misconceptions, white-coat hypertension, major risk factors (e.g. hypertension, cigarette smoking, abnormal levels of cholesterol and other fats and homocysteine in the blood, obesity, excess salt or alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, a family history of premature heart attack or stroke, aging, postmenopausal women), and the importance of a healthy lifestyle with proper nutrition.
