[Alert] New Blood Pressure Drug Risk Discovered!

Here’s the way the typical story goes:

You walk into your mainstream doctor’s office. They sit you down and take your blood pressure.

And if it’s even a little bit high… they force you on a risky drug to lower your blood pressure.

And that is the beginning of a slippery slope.

Because chances are your blood pressure medication starts out low and gets higher every visit.

But increasing high blood pressure dosages can be EXTREMELY DANGEROUS – especially when you’re in the hospital.

When ANY doctor tells you that high blood pressure can kill you, they’re not wrong.

High blood pressure leads to all sorts of problems with your heart, your brain, your kidneys and even your libido.

Even worse? High blood pressure drugs weaken your heart and make you feel tired. And once you are on these drugs, they are very hard to get off.

Plus, your dose never stays low.

This is called medication creep and it happens with a lot of drugs partly because your body adapts to the medication and then you need more to get the same effect.

But blood pressure medications might be the riskiest.

Because every time you’re admitted to a hospital – no matter what the reason – your dosage will likely increase.

On the surface, increasing dosage doesn’t seem like any big deal, but according to a study, published in JAMA Internal Medicine, people who had their dosages increased in the hospital where much more likely to be readmitted to the hospital for complications and experience have more serious health issues while in the hospitalized.

Like so many things in mainstream medicine, there is no good reason to increase medications – but they continue to do it.

Your best bet for maintaining good blood pressure is through exercise, healthy diet, and making sure you have the right nutrients for your heart.

And the next time you’re in the hospital, ask the doc WHY he’s increasing your meds before you agree to it.
