I’m 16 and have inherited high blood pressure from my mom. They have ran numerous tests(kidneys, blood, urine, etc) and have found all to be normal. I am athletic and eat rather healthy compared to most teenagers. I rarely ever drink soda and never add salt to my food. What are some ways to lower my blood pressure? Eat more fruits and vegetables? Drink more water? I REALLY do not want to live the rest of my life taking a pill to keep my blood pressure low.

My mom has really bad high blood pressure and high cholesterol. The doctors told her she needed to make a change and she doesn’t. She said its because she doesn’t have money & needs to eat whats available so i decided i would take over her grocery shopping for her & pay for them all. What sort of things should i get? I have no idea and would appreciate some help. Thank you :)

I spoke with my mom today. She’s in her late 60s and has had high blood pressure for years. She still works regularly but is staying home this week to see if her blood pressure can be moderated after spiking to 236/145. (I’m not 100% sure about the second number–it may be a little off, but I am absolutely positive about the 236.)

She was given a new medication, as well as some anxiety medicine. She’s always had high blood pressure, but the 236 even scared her.

So, how close is someone to a heart attack (or some other major body malfunction) when blood pressure goes that high? I remember my mom’s mom had high blood pressure and died from a massive heart attack at age 70 about twenty years ago.

DO NOT SAY TOOTH PASTE my pimples are just one here or there its like 6 new ones every day. if i pop them (which i have a tendency to do) i get scars and stuff. so home remedies to clear up acne (hopefully in a week if possible i start school in 9 days and counting) uhm also if u guys have any suggestions on how i can stop myself from popping my pimples
i am so not using proactive bc i know i cant afford it (my mom will make me pay for it) and ive read that if u stop using it the acne will get even worse. also is neutrogena a good product?

I really want to get into yoga, and I’ve tried a few times. My mom is really into is so she has all the things I need for it. The only thing is, I’ve always had severe difficulty sticking to one thing for longer than a session.

How can I get into serious yoga without losing my initiative?

I read on the doctors wall where they have posters informing you of different diseases and they had one where diabetes can hurt your skin and said "Protect Your Skin" And I am just curious to know. How does diabetes hurt your skin? What would your skin look like when it is affected by diabetes?
My concern is because my mom know has Diabetes type 2 and I am concern for myself and not sure if I have the signs. No health insurance.

I am asian, and I have acne (or actually… a few ‘remains’ of acne) but my skin continues to break out. Most of this is genetic, but are there any good home remedies to make zits ‘disappear’? I’ve heard of lemon juice… But my skin is kind of sensitive so I’m not sure how it will work.

My mom has suggested and she is wanting to buy Proactiv for me but she’s hasn’t gotten to it… but almost a year. I’m not allowed to go shopping by myself yet, so what inexpensive home remedies are there?

Thanks ^_^

My mom really likes yoga after reading so much about it from books she bought, and she would really like to try it some time. However, the problem is that she had undergone kidney transplant, which sort of complicates things. Therefore would yoga be appropriate for people that have undergone kidney transplant, and if it is, what postures are to be avoided, or can be done?
she has consulted her doctor and her doctor asked her to go ahead..
