Point:
"Contrary to prevailing opinion, new research indicates it is not depression that raises blood pressure but the drugs used to treat depression — a finding that suggests patients on antidepressants might need to be more closely monitored.Counterpoint:
Investigators at the VU University Medical Center, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, show that depression is associated with low — not high — blood pressure but that taking certain antidepressants, particularly tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), tends to raise blood pressure and increase the risk for hypertension."
"People who experience symptoms of depression or anxiety are at increased risk of developing hypertension, suggest the results of a two-decade study."The point?
They have no idea what is going on with something as common as hypertension that they have been looking at for a bazillion years.
They have even less idea of what is going on in the weight loss/fitness domain.
Do yourself a favor and don't listen to the experts.
They are clueless.
Listen to reason.
