Strokes: THE Diagnostics

We are in week three of a four-part series on the 4th-largest killer in America. This week, we talk about how Holistic Integration is able to know exactly why a patient has Hypertension—and how to fix it—after running the proper diagnostics. In this episode, you'll find out: —How men are 20% more likely to have a Stroke, but Women are 40% more likely to die from a Stroke. —Why it is more dangerous for "the bottom number" of your Blood Pressure (Diastolic) to be high than "the top number" (Systolic). —The surprising meaning of the diagnosis "essential" or primary Hypertension, which is 90-95% of all the Hypertension diagnosed. And how Dr. Prather has found that 70% of all Hypertension cases actually are because of low Kidney function. —The importance of knowing your GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate), which measures how well your Kidneys are working. —Why it's considered "unusual" for Kidney function to be improved, but Holistic Integration has been able to prove is possible"time and time again". —What is revealed by the ANS (Autonomic Nervous System) Test that is done for all new patients at Holistic Integration. And how the ANS Test is "the Gold Standard" test for measuring Nitric Oxide, which is an important factor in Hypertension. —Why the Cardiac C-Reactive Test is "probably the most important test for Stroke besides Blood Pressure". —How you are 10 times more likely to have a Stroke if you have had a TIA (transient ischemic attack) in the previous year. —The importance of the proper balance between the Parasympathetic and Sympathetic systems for reducing your chances of a Stroke. And how the Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic Adjustment is able to help Hypertension cases where the root cause is a Vagus Nerve issue. —How a Hair Analysis reveals the imbalances of your body's Mineral levels, which increase your risk of a Stroke. *Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:
