  • High Blood Pressure, Heart Disease and Influenza
    Wow, the above title sounds a real mouthful but the reason for it is this. Apparently, (listen up at the back please) the yearly Winter Flu Jab can help reduce the number of fatal heart attacks, incidence of death and the number of unplanned emergency procedures that require work on the clogged arteries of patients with Coronary Artery Disease,
  • High Blood Pressure, Why Is There So Much Medicine?
    Why is there so much High Blood Pressure Medicine? The short answer to this one is that there are so many people and we are all different in our diagnosis and they way we react to the different types of treatment on offer. Everyone rightly so is scared of conditions like Heart Attacks and wants to ensure that they don’t occur.
  • The Side Effects of taking ACE Inhibitors for High Blood Pressure
    All forms of medication have downsides if we are really being honest with ourselves. High Blood Pressure Medicine is no different. To be honest as I have covered in other articles with regards to medicine for High Blood Pressure it is very much a case of the lesser of two evils or “damned if you do, damned if you don’t.”
  • The Effects of High Blood Pressure and the side effects of High Blood Pressure Medicine.
    There is no disguising the fact and it is certainly one that should not be denied but there are considerable side effects of both having High Blood Pressure (and these can be lethal) and also considerable side effects of High Blood Pressure Medicine as well.
  • Erectile Dysfunction Is It All In The Mind or is it a Symptom of Something Else?
    Erectile Dysfunction, a phrase guaranteed to strike fear into the vast majority of men (and women too if surveys are to be believed) is the one thing that nine times out of ten can cause deep long lasting psychological scars if not treated carefully and properly.
  • High Blood Pressure, it could be all in the eyes?
    Even if you think you have 20/20 vision (and especially if you work with Computer screens and Monitors on a daily basis). An eye examination can pick up treatable conditions and deal with them as well as providing an opportunity to spot subtle changes that can be the forerunners of much more dangerous conditions such as High Blood Pressure.
  • Untreated Stress can kill
    Stress can kill you of that there is no doubt. By this I do not mean that it is a great joke and as such can kill you in that way. I am talking here of an involuntary premature short cut to the hereafter (or wherever your faith and belief takes you) that at this moment in time I would not wish on anyone. Stress should not be ignored and certainly not left untreated.
  • Money can’t always buy you Good Health. Taking a view on High Blood Pressure
    In the overall scheme of things you have to put being given a diagnosis of High Blood Pressure into perspective. On the scale of being told you have terminal and potentially fatal illness High Blood Pressure has to be looked at in the right way.
  • Dealing with Stress Related High Blood Pressure
    “Everyone needs some stress. It is what makes us get up in the morning and do the things we do. It makes us achieve things and get from A to B and in doing so our Blood Pressure has to rise – it is part of the normal way of things”.
  • High Blood Pressure an Equal Opportunity Condition
    At the risk of sounding sarcastic and being hounded by the feminist lobby – High Blood Pressure is what they call an “Equal Opportunity Disease” and by that I mean that it does exactly what the description says – it can hit anyone of any gender at any one time!
  • Credit Cards, Friend or Foe?
    The Festive Season approaches, It is also the time of year when the majority of the “Open Wallet” Surgery in our lives takes place and we end up funding next years Skiing trip for the majority of Credit Card Company executives the world over.
  • A Couple of Ways to Get the Best from Your Credit Cards This Christmas
    A couple of basic ways to help you stretch that already limited budget this Christmas without leaving you with financial indigestion after the Festive Season is over.
  • International Adoption and Guatemala
    Guatemala is one of the most controversial subjects in the world of International Adoption today. Not wishing to add further to the controversy, it is just that adopting a child from Guatemala today can be a little tricky unless you know what you are doing.
  • Beware Credit Card Thieves on the Horizon!
    No this is not a seasonal warning about thieves and pick-pockets (well certainly not the usual variety) but rather a heads up about the annual onslaught of direct mail from those glorious companies who have our welfare dearest to their hearts, the Worlds Credit Card Companies!
  • Want to lower your High Blood Pressure? Get yourself a dog!
    Pssst, want to positively do something about your High Blood Pressure? Get yourself a pooch and walk it!
  • Coffee, Good or Bad for the Blood Pressure?
    Caffeine, Good or Bad for the Blood Pressure? This is another one of those “is it or isn’t it” issues that probably by and large depends on a whole variety of associated issues but as it is one of the most regular of all of our queries I thought I would go ahead and try and provide some form of opinion.
  • What price Victory? – An alternative look at the Adoption Triangle.
    Adoption is great experience and one that can be of great benefit to the children concerned but in our haste lets not get carried away and forget about the Birth Mother.
  • The Real State of the Economy – Good or bad?
    There is something about the US Economy at the moment that I for one don’t get. Now it may be that being a brit, I am a little slow on the uptake; this has been known to happen every now and then but at the moment I cannot fathom several things out.
  • It’s Official; are we now a Bankrupt Society?
    OK perhaps a slightly OTT title and introduction but the core message put out recently by the UK Governments Insolvency Service was that a record number of people in the Uk were made officially “insolvent” between July and September 2006.
  • High Blood Pressure can be controlled
    It is very easy to come out of you Doctors Surgery (or Healthcare Practitioners Surgery) after you have been diagnosed with High Blood Pressure and admit defeat totally.

    It is the easiest option to take, to just sit back and say to yourself “OK, I’ll have to come to terms with the pills then” but why should you when with a little bit of effort you can control this condition that you have?
  • Debt consolidation is considered as an easy way to handle debts.
    Hmmnnn…., this old gag rears it’s ugly head on a regular basis. The truth of the situation (and here speaks someone who has gone through the mill on this one, come out the other side minus most of his shirt but still alive and kicking) is that this is only partly true.
  • Stress is Not Just For Adults
    Stress is not just for adults. Stop everything you are doing and think upon this one fact if you read nothing else of this article.

    Let me repeat it. Stress is not just for Adults! Kids are getting it too and this is really worrying if you follow this concept through to its natural conclusion. The knock on effects of this and the side effects of this could damage generations to come.
  • Heart Attack – we all know the term, but what exactly is a Heart Attack?
    It has possibly been described as THE disease of the 20th Century and is certainly the one of the Century’s biggest killers but what exactly is Heart Disease and what exactly is a Heart Attack?

    As they say, what is in a name? Well in this case the most common terminology in use is as follows. Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is (as the name suggests) the Disease of the Coronary Arteries. Ischaemic Heart Disease or IHD is a narrowing of the blood vessels resulting in Ischaemia, which is a lack of blood supply to the Heart Muscle.
  • Collecting Antiques – The Peoples Art Part 2
    In part one of this series of articles we discussed the growth in the marketability of antique brand images and how the apparent extinction of the brand itself can lead to the rapid rise of the marketability of the antique value of the packaging itself.

    Posters were very much in the vanguard of this market and it is quote ironic that when you look back from the experience of hindsight to see such names that have been involved in this type of commercial enterprise it would appear to be quite amusing.
  • Rationalising the Stigma of Bankruptcy Part 1
    In the first of a series of articles, Stephen Morgan tries to wrestle with the oft misunderstood lending criteria that Modern Day Financial Institutions use to help fuel their financial expansion and growth but at what expense?

    Hardly a month seems to go by when the Media isn’t reporting some incidence of the suicide or attempted suicide of some individual who has taken the unfortunate decision that death seems preferable to having to come to terms with dealing with steadily amassing debts.
  • Collecting Antiques – The Peoples Art
    In this, the first in a series of articles, we discuss the growth in the marketability of what used to be called Peoples Art and the marketability of everyday packaging materials.

    In the past it would have been deemed as vulgar to display any form of branding of any goods on display within the house.
  • Is International Child Adoption for You?
    How do you know if international adoption is for your family? Well, there is no perfect definition of someone who would be a good potential adoptive parent, but answering the questions will help clarify whether international child adoption is for you. It’s not for everyone.
  • International Adoption Agencies – Dealing when Dreams of Adoption are Fading
    It’s amazing when you consider the above statement and try and get a grasp on the two concepts of Young People and Debt?

    It had been three long years for both Karen and David Richards. They had been waiting to bring home a young Romanian girl to adopt. They had kept a photograph of Larissa on the side of their refrigerator only to be told at the last minute by their International Adoption Agency that she had been adopted and placed with a Romanian Family
  • The Culture of Debt amongst Young People
    It’s amazing when you consider the above statement and try and get a grasp on the two concepts of Young People and Debt?

    Back in my day being at College or University was all about racing around and being passionate about either Politics, Music, Alcohol and whatever else (or in most cases whoever else) you were passionate about.
  • Understanding the Need for Natural Treatment for High Blood Pressure
    “Never in the field of Human Endeavour has so much been owed by so many” – apologies to the late Sir Winston Churchill.

    High Blood Pressure (Hypertension) it has been argued by at least one Medical Practitioner is a disease caused by and large by the simple demands of modern living. OK I'll go along with that but maybe this is just slightly too simplistic a definition. OK so we all feel our blood pressure rise and when we run for a bus or a train or when our favourite football team win (or worse lose) but what are the contributory factors that make up this natural phenomenon.
  • Debt Consolidation: From Generation X to Generation Broke
    “Never in the field of Human Endeavour has so much been owed by so many” – apologies to the late Sir Winston Churchill.

    OK folks it’s another bout of Heads Up time again! I have just finished reading an extremely frightening report that even if only partly true should actually go a long way to frighten the pants off most free thinking level headed individuals.
  • High Blood Pressure and the use of Medication
    The use of medication as the primary form of treatment for High Blood Pressure has come on in leaps and bounds over the past fifty years and what was once a very inexact science has now become one where by and large it is very exact. The treatment programmes that were instigated seem very primitive in hindsight and thankfully now with the introduction of increasingly sophisticated drug therapy matters have moved ahead somewhat.
  • International Adoption - Helpful Hints to Adoptive Parents on Child Adoption
    In the world of International Adoption, Guatemala is one of the most popular and least regulated Countries. Last year there were estimated to have been 1,500 Guatemalan International adoption opportunities are available for people to be able to adopt babies, children and older children; you just need to know where to look and to whom the correct people are to talk to. By this we mean, the correct Local, Private or Governmental Agencies.
  • International Adoption - The Children of Guatemala
    In the world of International Adoption, Guatemala is one of the most popular and least regulated Countries. Last year there were estimated to have been 1,500 Guatemalan Children and Babies who have started fresh lives abroad, but the spectre of Illegal Adoptions have haunted Guatemala for years. Stories have emerged of mothers being forced to give up their new born children and of a booming private adoption business that has now grown almost into a multi million pound industry.
  • An Introduction to Antique Furniture Part Two
    Early forms of furniture were primitive items constructed quite often out of solid pieces of timber. Though quite ornate at times they were still fairly basic items that lacked the finesse of later centuries and manufacturers.
  • Avoiding The Hidden Pitfalls and Traps of Certain Types of Debt Consolidation
    “It’s very easy sir, we can help with debt consolidation in a number of ways. Let us know exactly how much you owe, who the debts are to and for a fixed fee we take care of all of the rest. Your credit record will start to be rectified the moment you put down this telephone. Can you afford such and such (figure withheld)? It will come out of you account on a regular monthly…..oh and by the way, should there ever be an occasion that you have a problem with the monthly payment, call our Customer S
  • An Introduction to Antique Furniture
    Furniture has been a domestic necessity in all civilisations, ancient to modern (and in-between) and has been produced in large quantities over the centuries. Developed from humble beginnings whereby the furniture was constructed out of simple designs by and large cut straight from one section of a tree to more advanced skilfully constructed pieces made possible by more advanced construction and woodwork techniques.
  • Getting away from it all in the Great Smoky Mountains
    “They die hard, those old ways, in the mountains; some of them were good ways”
    - Horace Kephart
    Great Smoky National Park is one of the most visited tourist attractions in the United States and is also one of the most biologically diverse environments on Earth.
  • The benefits of Acupuncture as a treatment for High Blood Pressure
    Alongside the more standard provision of healthcare for the treatment of High Blood Pressure there are now beginning to emerge more and more complimentary options. Of these perhaps the most commonly available form of complimentary healthcare in use to day is that of Acupuncture.
  • Erectile Dysfunction – one of the side effects of High Blood Pressure
    Erectile Dysfunction caused by High Blood Pressure? The majority of us know what this means and even those who don’t exactly know the complete technical and medical reasons for the condition know about its implications, or so it would seem.

    The reason I mention this is to ensure that any editorial policy makers out there reading (or scanning) their way through this article can be reassured that it is indeed about a medical condition and not some salacious attempt at titillation by deceit.
  • Alcohol and High Blood Pressure Fact or Fiction
    Alcohol and High Blood Pressure - wow, this is a good one (he says putting down his pint – only joking). Consuming Alcohol and High Blood Pressure as an issue is a real conundrum.

    One the one hand, the odd wee drink now and then (he says picking his pint glass up again) is actually quite beneficial and can act as an aid and part treatment for cardiovascular purposes but it is like everything, taken to excess, therein lies the downfall.
  • The Great Smoky Mountain National Park – just why it is so special.
    The Great Smoky Mountain National Park has been described as “The most magical national park in the United States of America”.

    The Smoky Mountains or “Smokies” are part of the Appalachian Mountains of the eastern United States and the whole area is steeped in history, folklore and is incredibly beautiful to boot!
  • "Life Insurance" – Should be “Death Insurance” but they’d have a hard time selling the policies.
    Phew that’s one heck of a long title, [perhaps I should have broken it up, but it might have ended up sounding like the screen play to some cheap TV Docu-drama).

    However I digress.
