Cholesterol contamination of the blood vessels is the cause of hypertension

Cholesterol contamination of blood vessels is the main cause of age-related hypertension and can however be prevented says Swiss cardiologist, Dr. Lauren korty.

Korty noted that the treatment of hypertension in Nigeria with old drugs is uncalled for.

The swiss doctor visited Nigeria last year to study the experience of her Nigerian counterparts and was in dismay at the low level medical sector.
She noted that in this country, the medical sector is still poorly developed.

What did the famous doctor dislike in Nigeria? And why did she claim that Nigerian hypertensive patients will never get better?

In an interview with reporters, she has this to say..

"I do not want to offend Nigeria, I respect Nigerian culture and people, but I would like to repeat what I said. The level of the Nigerian medical sector really surprises European colleagues". He continued that Nigerian medicine treats the way patients were treated 20 or 30 years ago.
Hence we are not getting solutions to treatable sicknesses.

"At least I am talking about the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, hypertension".

She noted that what doctors recommend for the treatment of hypertension in Nigeria, likes of lisinopril, amlodipine, chlorothalaxide, enalapril, valsartan and similar drugs do not treat hypertension but reduces blood pressure.

" imagine what happens on a body level. The patient takes the drug, his blood pressure decreases. However, after a while, the pressure rises again. Such changes harm the body even more than constantly elevated blood pressure". he asserted.

Blood vessels according to him are destroyed very quickly, leading to a heart attack or stroke.

"In the rest of Europe, this method of controlling hypertension has not been used for more than 20 years. And pills to reduce blood pressure are used only in rare cases".

He also noted that in Switzerland, the drugs Nigerians freely used are only sold by prescription and not in such quantities.

"Your doctors and pharmacists are killing people, clearly, constantly selling drugs to lower pressure at high prices is much more profitable than curing hypertension. It's horrible".

"Swiss scientists have long understood that it is necessary to eliminate the causes of hypertension, not the consequences as this is the key to a complete and safe treatment".

"The main cause of hypertension is the narrowing of the lumen of the vessels. "Age-related hypertension occurs in people over time and accounts for 96% of hypertensive cases".

He analysed the cause of hypertension thus:

"Imagine that the containers are pipes. The walls of the pipes are contaminated, and water is more difficult to move through them. However, water should flow and pass through the pipes in sufficient quantities. What is needed for the passage of water is increase pressure, right?
That's what the heart does and leads to an increase in blood pressure, and therefore to rapid wear of the heart muscle".

"We, the swiss did find a better way to clean the containers from pollution. This is how hypertension is treated in Switzerland", he concluded.
