Many people think that high blood pressure comes with age and it is normal to take some medicines for this, especially with the world the way it is today. But it's not. Hypertension can be the cause of heart disease, strokes, chronic kidney disease and more and can be prevented by being aware of the causes and avoiding them. Join us on Saturdays with SHARAN with Dr Nandita Shah from India to understand what hypertension, its causes and prevention is. You will also see testimonials of 2 SHARAN facilitators as well as hear from our clinical cardiologist, Dr Aarti Rathi and you will see Madhura Vayal's healthy version of a popular and delicious North Indian dish, Daal Makhani. Recipe for Daal Makhani DAL MAKHANI (Serves 2) Ingredients 1/4 cup red kidney beans 1/4 cup whole black gram 4 medium size tomatoes, coarsely chopped 1 medium size onion 2 bay leaves 1 inch cinnamon 1 black cardamom 1 star anise 1 tsp red chilli powder 1/4 tsp turmeric 1/2 tsp coriander powder 1/4 tsp cumin powder 1 tsp garam masala 1/2 tsp kasoori methi (optional) 1/8 tsp cardamom powder 8-10 cashews 1 tsp unrefined salt 1/4 cup water 2 cups water for soaking 1 cup water for cooking For garnish 2-3 tbsp thick coconut milk (first extract) Method Wash the kidney beans and black gram. Soak them in 2 cups water and keep aside for 8 hours preferably overnight Drain the water and rinse with fresh water. Pressure cook these with 1 cup water and ½ tsp salt for 1 whistle and allow the pressure release by itself. Drain the beans (but keep the water). You can also cook the beans without a pressure cooker the way you usually cook beans. Heat a thick bottom stainless steel pan. Add the chopped onions, 2 tbsp water and 1/4 tsp salt. Cook the onions till they are light brown and translucent. Add the tomatoes, ginger and garlic. Add 1/4 cup water. Bring it to a boil and cover and cook for 10 mins. Once the tomatoes have mushed up, turn the heat off and allow this mixture to cool down. Transfer in a grinder jar and add the cashews. Grind this mixture without adding any water till it's smooth and creamy. In a thick bottom stainless steel kadhai or pot add the garam masalas and 2-3 tbsp water. Bring to a boil. Add the ground paste and the pressure cooked beans. Adjust the consistency with the saved beans water. Add salt only if necessary. Serve the hot dal makhani along with fragrant brown rice (recipe on SHARAN website) or with Indian flat breads. SERVES 2 VARIATIONS: You can make more of the gravy (with the paste and garam masala) and freeze it and use it later. You can replace the beans with tofu to get a ‘paneer' makhani or with mixed vegetable to get a vegetable makhanwalla and impress your guests every time! You may also replace the whole black gram with brown lentils.

Editor's Summary by Preeti N. Malani, MD, MSJ, Deputy Editor of JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association, for the September 19, 2023, issue. Related Content: Audio Highlights

Universal, weekly (surveillance) laboratory screening for expectant management of Hypertensive Disorders in Pregnancy has been routine practice since the release of the ACOG's Hypertension in Pregnancy executive summary in November of 2013. This plan of care was also recommended in the ACOG Practice Bulletin 222 focused on Gestational Hypertension and Preeclmapsia. But does this actually help prevent maternal morbidity? Does routine weekly lab surveillance, detect worsening disease over clinical presentation alone? In this episode, we will summarize a new study soon to be released in the Green Journal (Obstetrics & Gynecology) which seeks to determine the clinical utility of this outpatient, antepartum management option.

Reader feedback, imaging in the cath lab, AF ablation to relieve anxiety, and some possible help in hypertension are the topics John Mandrola, MD, discusses in this week's podcast.

In this episode of “Inside Health Care,” we talk interoperability with a cardiologist who helped develop a new standard for data records exchange. Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources, a.k.a. FHIR, can improve efficiencies in use and transfer of electronic health records. It can ease pressure on medical staff while also improving health equity measurement.In our discussion with Dr. James Tcheng, we focus on the CardX Hypertension Project. CardX, or cardiovascular data exchange, was launched in 2022 by the University of Nebraska Medical Center's Center for Intelligent Heath Care. The project stems from the greater CodeX FHIR Accelerator project. The project seeks to use FHIR as a standard for data transfer and parsing. The project's stated objective is to “facilitate the communication of hypertension management data between clinicians and patients to increase the proportion of individuals with hypertension who are treated to goal.”Our guest is Dr. James Tcheng, cardiologist and professor of Family Medicine and Community Health at Duke University's School of Medicine. In addition to his work with patients, his research ranges from developing therapies for cardiovascular disease to use of A.I., I.T., and clinical informatics to improve efficiencies in the delivery of care. I'm pleased to say that Dr. Tcheng will be presenting a session on the CardX FHIR Accelerator at NCQA's annual Health Innovation Summit, coming October 2023.Later on in our “Fast Facts” segment, we observe September's Healthy Aging Month in the U.S. with information about osteoarthritis. We also give a rundown of NCQA's HEDIS OMW measure, namely Osteoporosis Management in Women Who Had a Fracture. This measure assesses women 67–85 years of age who suffered a fracture and who had either a bone mineral density test or a prescription for a drug to treat osteoporosis in the 6 months after the fracture.

Doctors Lisa and Sara talk to Dr Aseem Mishra to discuss changes in the guidelines for Hypertension. The discussion includes advice on how to get the most accurate diagnosis and measurements for blood pressures, the importance of counselling patients well, and advice on medications. We started with a poem from Aseem focusing around why this is such an important topic.

The October, November, and December 2013 issues of the Journal of Clinical Hypertension (a conservative and traditional medical journal) each included a section of a major research review article on a topic that hard-science, data-driven clinicians might not have taken seriously until recently: replacing antihypertensive medications with appropriate nutrition and nutraceutical supplements. In this episode we will discuss the environmental factors that contribute to hypertension and how you can replace pharmaceuticals with nutrition for healing! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/elanie-welch/support

In this episode of Your Health Transformed we have the guest speaker Dr Jay Shah who is a cardiologist and also chief medical officer at Aktiia. The main topic that he talks about in this podcast is “Hypertension” since it's a huge issue all around the world, He starts by giving us an overview of his company. He explains how most people do not pay attention to their blood pressure as they think it's common and not something that they should worry about and this leads misunderstanding leads them to worst conditions. Even after having the best treatment available yet only one in five percent of people have their blood pressure in control. Further, he explains in detail on how to take a proper blood pressure test. What conditions need to be followed etc? He states that Aktiia is a technology software that is based on optical signals that sit on the wrist and give accurate blood pressure readings almost like a watch. He puts forward facts that are being faced by physicians and patients in the current world. The most mind-blowing fact that he talks about is how only 50% of people are actually salt sensitive regarding blood pressure. He finally concludes by stating that the main aim of his company is to “Empower patients and make them independent of everything and give expert knowledge and be available to everyone”. #DrJaySha #understandinghypertension #health #fitness #healthylifestyle #wellness #healthy #workout #love #gym #lifestyle #fit #fitnessmotivation #training #nutrition #exercise #healthyfood #weightloss #bodybuilding #life #instagood #fitfam #beauty #covid #selfcare #bhfyp #mentalhealth #food #diet #bhfyp To learn more about my transformation program and how to use it on your journey to become a better you, check out my book Transformation is a Mind-Set https://www.amazon.com/Transformation...

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-size, bonus episodes offering tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn's talking about luteolin. It's not a new supplement. Traditional Chinese Medicine has been using luteolin for centuries to treat diseases such as hypertension, inflammatory disorders, and as anti cancer. There seems to be a few different biological effects like anti inflammation, anti allergy, and anti cancer. A unique quality of luteolin is that it seems to be able to function as an antioxidant or a prooxidant, but more research is needed to fully understand these functions. Perhaps most beneficial for our modern lives, there is a potential tie between luteolin and reducing or improving brain fog, social interactions, anxiety, and depression.. Tune in to learn the foods you can eat to give you more luteolin in your diet. Like what you're hearing?

High blood pressure and cholesterol are commonly seen to signal increased risk of heart disease. To lower both, eating less animal fats, like butter, lard, and tallow, is often recommended. Many of us have the standard LDL, aka “bad” cholesterol or low density lipoproteins, level test done. However, this has shown to only be able to accurately predict heart disease risk around 40 percent of the time. So, is having a LDL cholesterol level on its own really so bad? What kind of test can give a more accurate, say 70 percent, prediction rate for heart disease? Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH), a diet promoted by the HHS's National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, suggests eating vegetable oils over animal fats to lower LDL cholesterol level. But which type of food may be much worse for our blood cholesterol and heart health? Join Brendon Fallon on #VitalSigns to probe a better way gauge heart-disease risk, whether the DASH diet works, and simple and effective ways to lower blood pressure. ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

This weeks guest is my favorite researcher, Dr. Richard Johnson. He is the Tomas Berl Professor of Medicine and the Chief of the Renal Division and Hypertension at the University of Colorado since 2008. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, with a major in Anthropology, and a graduate of the University of Minnesota Medical School, Minneapolis, he is a physician and nephrologist whose research has focused on the role of sugar, and especially fructose, in driving obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and kidney disease. Much of this work has explored the role of fructose metabolism, especially the generation of uric acid, in driving this phenotype, and his work has included studies ranging from molecular biology, integrative physiology, and evolutionary biology. He is the author of The Sugar Fix which introduced the first low fructose diet, and also The Fat Switch which explores the role of fructose in driving the obesity epidemic. His newest book, Nature Wants Us To Be Fat, is a tour de force of the entire pathway of survival via metabolic events in the body related to fructose and the polyol pathway. This is a must read book. This podcast will follow up on the original conversation, podcast #14, and the exceptional work of Dr. Johnson this time looking at how we are mismatched metabolically for the environment of modern America and our food systems from the maternal health and perinatal perspective. Enjoy, Dr. M

The Rhode Island House of Representatives passed the most recent state budget in just about three hours last month.

And what does Mr. Speaker have to say about the paralysis gripping attempts to redevelop the Cranston Street Armory, and the signature-gathering controversy dogging Sabina Matos' congressional campaign?

An outspoken professional who doesn't shy away from a spirited debate, he is deeply committed to helping people stuck in self-destructive cycles reclaim their ability to change their lives. Dr. Goldhamer has supervised the fasts of thousands of patients. Under his guidance, the Center has become one of the premier training facilities for doctors wishing to gain certification in the supervision of therapeutic fasting. Dr. Goldhamer was the principal investigator in two landmark studies. The first: “Medically Supervised Water-Only Fasting in the Treatment of Hypertension” appeared in the June 2001 issue of the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics. Its publication marked a turning point in the evolution of evidence supporting the benefits of water-only fasting. The second study: “Medically Supervised Water-Only Fasting in the Treatment of Borderline Hypertension,” appeared in the October 2002 issue of the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. Currently, Dr. Goldhamer is directing a team that is developing a prospective study, incorporating random assignment and long-term follow-up on the cost and clinical outcomes in the treatment of diabetes and high blood pressure with fasting and a health-promoting diet. After completing his chiropractic education at Western States Chiropractic College in Portland, Oregon, Dr. Goldhamer traveled to Australia, where he became licensed as an osteopathic physician. He is the author of The Health Promoting Cookbook. This cookbook is designed for people who want to eat to live — and live healthfully. The recipes in this book completely avoid the use of all animal products, including meat, fish, fowl, eggs and dairy products as well as the use of added oil, salt and sugar. Most recipes are also wheat-free. All of the recipes use readily available ingredients derived exclusively from whole natural foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans, and raw nuts and seeds. He is also co-author of The Pleasure Trap: Mastering The Hidden Force That Undermines Health and Happiness. A wake-up call to even the most health-conscious Americans, this book challenges conventional wisdom about sickness and unhappiness in today's contemporary culture and offers ground-breaking solutions for achieving change. Inspired by stunning original research, comprehensive clinical studies, and their successes with thousands of patients, the authors construct a new paradigm for the psychology of health that offers fresh hope for anyone stuck in a self-destructive cycle.

In this episode, we compare hydrochlorothiazide and chlorthalidone, but specifically from a cardiovascular outcomes perspective when used in patients with hypertension. Key Concepts Chlorthalidone, hydrochlorothiazide, and indapamide are available thiazide diuretics for treatment of hypertension; however, hydrochlorothiazide is the most commonly used agent. Chlorthalidone is more potent in reducing blood pressure but also is associated with a higher risk of electrolyte abnormalities compared to HCTZ.  Recent studies for cardiovascular outcomes show that chlorthalidone is not better than HCTZ in preventing CV outcomes, but increases risk for hypokalemia, need for monitoring and even potassium supplementation.  References Ishani A, Cushman WC, Leatherman SM, et al.
