			<content:encoded><![CDATA[What is the important thing for us?Health,but now more and more illness feazed us,today our ePathChina want to tell you What is blood pressure and how to control it.
We know that there have more and more people become fat than ever,and some young people have high blood pressure too.But due to we always think only old people have it,we ignore it.But also have many people buy a blood pressure monitor from our site. 
So today our ePathChina want to teach you some knowledge about high blood pressure. 
&nbsp;At first,what is high blood pressure? 
&nbsp;High blood pressure (HBP) is a serious condition that can lead to coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, and other health problems. 
&nbsp;&quot;Blood pressure&quot; is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. If this pressure rises and stays high over time, it can damage the body in many ways. 
&nbsp;Blood pressure numbers include systolic (sis-TOL-ik)
 and diastolic (di-a-STOL-ik) pressures. Systolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart beats while pumping blood. Diastolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart is at rest between beats. 
&nbsp;You will most often see blood pressure numbers written with the systolic number above or before the diastolic, such as 120/80 mmHg. (The mmHg is millimeters of mercury&mdash;the units used to measure blood pressure.) 
All levels above 120/80 mmHg raise your risk, and the risk grows as blood pressure levels rise. &quot;Prehypertension&quot; means you're likely to end up with HBP, unless you take steps to prevent it. 
&nbsp;If you're being treated for HBP and have repeat readings in the normal range, your blood pressure is under control. However, you still have the condition. You should see your doctor and stay on treatment to keep you blood pressure under control. 
&nbsp;Your systolic and diastolic numbers may not be in the same blood pressure category. In this case, the more severe category is the one you're in. For example, if your systolic number is 160 and your diastolic number is 80, you have stage 2 HBP. If your systolic number is 120 and your diastolic number is 95, you have stage 1 HBP. 
&nbsp;Second,if you have HBP,what should you do? 
&nbsp;We can through these method to controll our blood pressure. 
1.Reasonable meal 
To control the intake of energy, eat complex carbohydrates to promote,restriction of fat intake,adequate intake of protein,limit salt intake,eat much more fresh vegetables,fruit and &nbsp; &nbsp; 
appropriate to increase seafood intake. 
2.Regular exercise 
3.Limit alcohol and stop smoking 
4.Psychological balance.do not feel Tension, irritability, emotional instability. 
5.Go to callback on time. 
I think if you do it,your blood pressure will be controlled,but i think some people could not have time to callback.Young workers need to do work,old people are hard to go out to check. 

&nbsp;How to solve it? 
Now you can see lots kind blood pressure monitor on the market,so you can buy one and use it.It is easy to use,and no need your any time. 
Use it,you can know your blood pressure is high or low,and help you to constitute your plan.

			<title>FDA to Now Allow 17yr Olds Access To Morning-After Pill</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Seventeen-year-olds will soon have access to emergency contraception without a  prescription, U.S. health regulators said on Wednesday, complying with a court  order to ease restrictions on over-the-counter sales of the so-called  &quot;morning-after&quot; pill.
Last month, a U.S. court ruled the Food and Drug Administration under the  Bush administration had allowed politics to cloud its decision-making process  regarding availability of the Plan B drug which had been restricted to those 18  and older.
It ordered the agency to allow nonprescription sales to 17-year-olds, and to  reconsider its decision regarding over-the-counter access to Plan B.
The FDA on Wednesday said it would allow nonprescription access to  17-year-olds as soon as it received necessary information from the drug's maker,  Barr Pharmaceuticals Inc, now part of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries  Ltd.
&quot;The government will not appeal this decision,&quot; the FDA said in a statement  on its website.
Teva said it would comply with FDA's request but it could still take 10  months before the drug is available without a prescription for younger  buyers.
&quot;We will continue to work closely with FDA to ensure that all provisions of  this decision are met,&quot; it said.
Women's health advocates cheered the FDA's decision, with some adding that  access should be loosened even more, to allow shelf sales without age  restrictions. They along with company officials argue it is critical for women  to have quick access to the drug, which aims to prevent pregnancy when used  within 24 hours of sexual intercourse.
&quot;It's a good indication that the agency will move expeditiously to ensure its  policy on Plan B is based solely on science,&quot; said Nancy Northup, president of  the Center for Reproductive Rights, which initiated the lawsuit in  2005.
National Women's Health Network policy director Amy Allina said FDA's move  &quot;gets us part way to where we believe the FDA should be.&quot; But she added,  &quot;Putting it behind the counter does not make it safer or more effective. In  fact, because it creates another barrier it's likely to make it less  effective.&quot;
Plan B is a set of two pills that contain higher doses of progestin than are  used in prescription birth control pills.
Conservative groups have opposed any nonprescription access to the drug,  saying among other things that it could lead to promiscuity.
&quot;The FDA violated its standards when it made the high dose Plan B available  nonprescription to adults. But now the FDA is making the drug available to  minors without parental consent,&quot; Concerned Women for America President Wendy  Wright said in a statement. &quot;The FDA should have challenged the  decision.&quot;
Barr had earlier sought over-the-counter access for those 16 and  older.
The FDA under President George W. Bush delayed making any decision for three  years. Then In 2006 it allowed behind-the-counter sales to those age 18 and  older who showed proof of age while still requiring a prescription for girls 17  and younger.
Even with the new FDA decision, the company would have to submit additional  data on the drug for 16-year-olds, said Diana Zuckerman, head of the National  Research Center for Women &amp; Families.
Despite the limitations, sales of Plan B &quot;have more than doubled&quot; since it  became available for adults from pharmacists in 2006, Teva said.
The FDA posted the announcement on its website here
