Black Men Unconscious of High Blood Pressure

Written by WTJ on July 3, 2008 – 9:41 pm -

Regardless of race, women are more health conscious than men.  Men often believe they do not need to see a doctor.  A study involved 1,514 adults with high blood pressure showed that men, especially African-American men, less likely to know their condition than women.

I found this image of Black Men cover.  This definitely will cause high blood pressure of straight men.  However high blood pressure is not an adult problem anymore, the age of getting high blood pressure is getting younger.  Please bring your kids for medical checkups.  Hypertension should be treated as early as possible as it could lead to kidney failures, etc.
