High Blood Pressure Questioned As Modern Disease
At the eighteenth annual clinical session of the American College of Physicians Dr Soma Weiss of Boston City Hospital argued that high blood pressure is not a pure modern disease. He noted the ailment also appears in quiet farming villages and disputed tobacco and alcohol as sole causes. Emotional stress raises readings while relaxation lowers them, and the condition reflects general body health rather than a single disease. He warned against drug-based weight reduction without physician guidance due to risks for heart and vessel patients.
