Even "fender-benders" can cause hidden injuries that can develop into pain, headaches, and arthritis. Even worse, most people who have been involved in an auto accident may not even know that they've been hurt. Schluter Chiropractic uses specific adjustments to help return spinal function.

How to sell more drugs and increase profits!

Just change the criteria for “high” blood pressure!   Remember “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.” 

Anytime I read something like this I have a flash back to 1993.  In 1993 I heard on the radio AIDS was spreading like wild fire, one radio station said by the new definition!  Yep, that’s right, according to the CDC AIDS was going down by the 92 definition, in 93 the definition of AIDS was expanded therefore AIDS was increasing!

“During 1993, local, state, and territorial health departments reported 103,500 acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) cases among persons aged greater than or equal to 13 years in the United States, an increase of 111% over the 49,016 reported in 1992(Figure_1). This increase resulted from the expansion of the AIDS surveillance case definition in 1993 *; in comparison, the number of cases based on the preexisting case definition decreased slightly.
Of cases in 1993, 55,432 (54%) were reported based on conditions added to the definition in 1993; and 48,068 (46%) were reported based on pre-1993 defined conditions — a 2% decrease from the number of cases reported in 1992″

“During 1993, the number of reported cases meeting the pre-1993AIDS surveillance definition decreased 2% from 1992.”

Maybe the new definition was more accurate but were they claiming AIDS is increasing to scare the public and get more funding?

 

New guidelines lower the threshold for high blood pressure, adding 30 million Americans to those who have the condition, which now plagues nearly half of U.S. adults.

High pressure, which for decades has been a top reading of at least 140 or a bottom one of 90, drops to 130 over 80 in advice announced Monday by a dozen medical groups.

The change means an additional 14 percent of U.S. adults have the problem, but only 2 percent of these newly added people need medication right away; the rest should try healthier lifestyles, which get much stronger emphasis in the new advice. Poor diets, lack of exercise and other bad habits cause 90 percent of high blood pressure.
