IT'S YOUR
HEART -SO SAVE
IT! *
5.000.000 In
Deadly ignorance
[Daily Mail- Monday, September 10, 2007]
More than five million Britons are living with
potentially fatal high blood pressure and don't even know it.
If all these sufferers were diagnosed
21,000 more
lives could be saved each year according to a
MEDICAL CHARITY
THE
BLOOD PRESSURE
ASSOCIATION'S DATA
-shows that a third of the nation's 16 million adults
with high blood pressure are unaware they have the condition which does
not have any early symptoms. The
CHARITY estimates that
40%
of stroke deaths
AND
30%
of heart attack fatalities
WOULD BE AVOIDED
through medical intervention
IF ONLY EVERYONE CHECKED THEIR BLOOD
PRESSURE
This would mean
13,000
fewer deaths from
HEART ATTACKS
AND 8000
fewer from
STROKES
EACH YEAR.
Graham MacGregor
Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine
AND
Chairman of the BMA
said:
'For those who are unaware of their high
blood pressure the consequences ca be devastating.
'We need to find these missing
millions as high blood pressure can be easily treated with lifestyle
changes and if necessary, tablets prescribed by a GP.'
The BPA released the figures for its
KNOW YOUR NUMBERS WEEK
which is the nation's biggest blood pressure-testing
event. More than
250,000 are
expected to take part across Britain, with more than 2,750 venues -
including PHARMACIES
GP SURGERIES
SHOPPING CENTRES GYMS and
COMMUNITY VENUES
OFFERING FREE BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS

IF YOU CAN SAY
'WE WANT OUT-WITHOUT
A DOUBT'
THEN
[Only an ultimatum by millions of
subjects that the new EU TREATY can never be accepted such as signing
the
RENUNCIATION of EU CITIZENSHIP
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Optout
Details from petition creator
With the signing of the Maastricht
Treaty the people of Britain were given
DUAL CITIZENSHIP
-both
EUROPEAN and BRITISH
The extra tier of citizenship was
thrust upon the people without their consent -and in many cases
knowledge.
The PEOPLE of GREAT BRITAIN should be
allowed the option of opting out of the EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP if they so
wish. The GOVERNMENT will then be able to provide those who have opted
out with
BRITISH DOCUMENTATION
-only such as British (not EU)
passports, driving licences and other national documents.
EU laws will also NOT APPLY to those who
HAVE OPTED OUT OF EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP
