New research found that more Americans than ever have high blood pressure and the number has risen by nearly a third over the past decade. There are number of reasons for this, but unfortunately, this is no surprise to us. This is probably more worrying than terrorists, but all TV networks and papers are talking about terrorists and how US is under their threat. Odd ...

No, not surprising at all. I would guess that this trend largely reflects increasing obesity in the US.

Check our Dr. Bezruchka's speech on this page. Making a long story very very short, the difference between rich and poor has only increased dramatically in US. The enormous difference between rich and poor puts a lot of pressure on a lot of people, in most cases, poor people; consequently, Americans deal with a lot more stress today. Again, I'm making a very very long story short; you should definitely check the speech.
