If you saw the first version where I didn't include a "I just did not do that" vote... no you didn't.

The hypertension drug rilmenidine has been shown to slow down aging in worms, an effect that in humans could hypothetically help us live longer and keep us healthier in our latter years. Previous research has shown rilmenidine mimics the effects of caloric restriction on a cellular level. Reducing available energy while maintaining nutrition within the body has been shown to extend lifespans in several animal models. Whether this translates to human biology, or is a potential risk to our health, is a topic of ongoing debate. Finding ways to achieve the same benefits without the costs of extreme calorie cutting could lead to new ways to improve health in old age. In a study published in January, young and old Caenorhabditis elegans worms treated with the drug – which is normally used to treat high blood pressure – lived longer and presented higher measures in a variety of health markers in the same way as restricting calories, as the scientists had hoped. "For the first time, we have been able to show in animals that rilmenidine can increase lifespan," said molecular biogerontologist João Pedro Magalhães, from the University of Birmingham in the UK.

8?

8 - have I ever been stethed by anyone.?

Not in a cardiophile kinda of way. Only really at the doctor, however when my friend was training to be a nurse every time he would hang the requirement was that he could practice taking our vitals. I spent the whole time trying to control my breathing and heart rate so it didn’t give me away but he explained what we were listening for when taking blood pressure and let me try. I got to listen to his heart and mine for the first (hhehehe not first) and played dumb with how to use the stethoscope.

Up until joining Tumblr about a month ago I was very shy about my cardiophilia but the acceptance and respect I’ve received has been awesome and it makes me feel like I can trust and be vulnerable with someone to be gentle and respectful of her in real life too some day.

Anyways I thought it would be fun to record my heart while answering this to make it interesting and see what she has to add … 😃

Had my blood pressure taken today and the reading was so insane that it palpably frightened the healthcare provider

I didn't know how to tell them that I'd just ALMOST accidentally shown everyone in the room some fucking filthy Patreon drops from @meanbossart 😬

She took another reading at the end of the appointment and it was confirmed that I actually have the blood pressure of a sleeping saint when I'm not worried about outing myself as a rampaging pervert

Bacterial toxins can compromise blood vessels' leakiness affecting blood pressure. This study reveals that blood vessel lining cells' membranes, under the control of proteins called caveolin-1 and cavin1, stiffen to regulate the leakiness via tunnels called transendothelial cell macroapertures

Limiting yourself to one alcoholic drink a day may not be enough to avoid detrimental effects on your health, researchers report. The new study confirms for the first time that both low and high daily alcohol intake are continuously associated with increases in blood pressure levels, potentially increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. The findings were the result of combined analysis of seven international research studies conducted between 1997 and 2021 in almost 20,000 adults in the US, Korea, and Japan in whom the association between usual intake of alcohol and blood pressure could be observed for periods of four to 12 years. None of the participants had been previously diagnosed with high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, or alcoholism. Participants who consumed an average of 12 grams of alcohol per day—roughly equivalent to 1.5 oz. of liquor or one 11 oz. beer—saw systolic blood pressure rise 1.25 mmHg. Consuming 48 grams per day saw a systolic blood pressure increase of 4.9 mmHg.

Hypertension has long been known to be a causative factor for a multitude of medical ailments. Hypertension has further been noticed to have significantly increased in recent years, posing a public health concern. While medical costs and inconvenience may deter potential patients from seeking frequent blood pressure monitoring, new advances in wearable medical devices have made it possible to measure blood pressure cheaply and conveniently from the comfort of one’s home. Tsinghua University, China, researchers designed a wearable device and a novel blood pressure measurement technique for continuous monitoring. The wearable device can be generalized across individuals and has considerable promise in personal healthcare applications.

Hypertension is a medical ailment that has received significant scrutiny over the past few decades. A condition wherein the arterial blood pressure is higher than normal over a long period of time, it has been implicated as a significant risk factor in conditions such as heart failure, strokes, and atrial fibrillation, among others. Lifestyle and genetic factors greatly increase the risk of having high blood pressure, and it has been noted to be a cause of premature death all over the world.

We can see that the measurement of blood pressure regularly can have significant positive impacts by letting individuals know about irregularities in a timely and convenient manner. Wearable medical devices also eliminate other factors in the mismeasurement of blood pressure, including human error and blood pressure variability in various settings. Ambulatory monitors have been developed for this purpose, which can be used to measure blood pressure at certain intervals, but even these cannot provide continuous measurement of blood pressure and prove to be inconvenient to the user since they often need to be used at a frequency of once every 15 to 30 minutes, and interrupt the progression of daily life.

Remember when that post went around by that user who had issues with feeling sick when their blood sodium was low and they felt physically ill from it so they would just sprinkle salt into their hand and lick it until they feel better? And it was reblogged by chronic illness/disability circles until it was picked up by nominally healthy people who were commenting that wow this made me feel so much better after feeling like shit constantly, which PROLLY meant they also had low sodium issues. But then health freaks and normies got ahold of it and were reblogging in embiggened letters "NO NO NO! THIS WILL LITERALLY KILL PEOPLE! AMERICA HAS AN EPIDEMIC OF HYPERTENSION DO NOT LISTEN TO OP THEY ARE SO STUPID"?

Anyway my Crohnsy, vasovagal syncopeic, hypotensive ass is out of Lays ☹️

#just chronic illness things #Crohn's disease #vasovagal syncope #pots #MAYBE i MIGHT be misdiagnosed and the VVS is actually POTS #hypotension #blood pressure #salt blessed salt #sodium #ableism #health freaks shut the fuck up forever and leave chronically ill and disabled people alone challenge #praise Lord and pass the salt 🙏#whatever happened to that op anyway i don't remember who they were. really hoping they weren't chased off the site BECAUSE THEY WERE RIGHT #salt #edit: lol it's not even my Crohn's this time lol it's some mystery illness in my duodenum #either way 🚽
