Editorial Reviews

Review
"Rather than simply informing people of their risks, and of the measures they should take, The Blood Pressure Book leads its readers into action. It enables them to develop their own custom-made blood pressure control program, step-by-step."  —John W. Farquhar, MD, professor of medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine
--This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Product Description
Diastolic, systolic - such terms are crucial in understanding blood pressure. This guide by two medical experts explains these terms and much more. The book covers basic information, suggests lifestyle changes (diet, exercise, stress), and incorporates the newest research. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
