High blood pressure for long has been known to be a leading cause of heart attack, stroke and morbidity.

Yet, do you know that the traditional way of measuring it has been found to be ineffective?

The revelation that your blood pressure reading may be lying to you may come as a surprise, but research indicates that the one-off clinical blood pressure reading, a technique from the 1800s and now severely dated, has the potential to misdiagnose hypertension significantly.

This means that, denied accurate knowledge of what’s really happening in your veins, you could be tragically ignoring the brewing of potentially crippling and fatal illnesses.

Alternatively, due to a phenomenon called the ‘white coat response’, your blood pressure may spike up temporarily when being measured, and based on the false diagnosis resulting from this, you may be put on a lifetime of unnecessary medication. Frightening? Fortunately, there’s a solution.
