Are you one of the many who every year makes a new promise to yourself? For example; this year you will stop smoking, get in shape, start eating healthier and so on. Believe it or not most people make some kind of promise to them self which is actually a great thought but unfortunately a great majority of these resolutions are broken even before they were started.
One of the most common resolutions out there is probably the stop smoking one there after followed by the promise of getting in better shape. The first of these two is most likely the hardest to keep. Even if you are not able to kick the smoking habit you need to remember that smoking has a great part in deteriorating your health, so maybe you should concentrate on getting in better shape.
Everybody knows that smoking can cause cancer but what about the other side effects smoking can have on your body? Combined with today's way of living and not getting enough exercise smoking can actually cause a very undetectable and serious health issue to your body. What we call this condition is bad circulation.
Alone and in it self smoking can cause bad circulation but when you in addition to this add not getting enough exercise and eating fatty foods this can quickly become a deadly combination, a combination which can lead us, without even knowing it, to have a heart attack or a stroke.
Bad circulation is not the only health issue that can come about due to smoking and unhealthy living but it certainly is one of the most serious. Sometimes you can actually feel if you are suffering from bad circulation by numbness in your legs and feet or that these are frequently "falling asleep". These are clear signs of bad blood circulation.
What is so bad about this condition is that very often there are hardly any symptoms at all and most people do not recognize just small little warnings that something could be wrong in their body. If you are in a high risk group for bad circulation or you believe that you may already be suffering from this it is important that you seek medical advice to ensure that your life is not in danger.
Fortunately bad circulation is a condition which can be prevented or treated without it costing you a fortune in prescriptions. You can beat bad circulation simply by making some minor changes in your life and treat this with the help of some regular everyday remedies which can be found in any health food store near you.
If you this year make a resolution to stop smoking you might as well add getting in shape to your list. If you can't go through with one of the two, at least you will regardless improve your health and maybe even save your life.

By: maxmitch | 14-07-2008
I was on Benicar HCT 20/12.5 for three years until I recently started having leg cramps (calf). I reported this to my doc and she changed me on a trial basis to Benicar 40 mg. I have worked hard this year to lose weight--and have lost 10 pounds--with the goal of eventually getting off BP meds altogether. The 40 mg in just three days gave me dizziness and a headache that stayed with me all day. So my question is: if my goal is to eventually get off BP meds, shouldn't I stick with the lighter dosage (20 mg) without the diurectic instead of going up? maxmitch2002@yahoo.com Thanks.
