why potassium dichromate initially orange in colour?

I am 21 years old, Male and am from India. I have a high blood pressure of 140/96. I weigh 93 kgs and am obese. I guess my cholesterol levels are also very high. What are the possible dangers I might face ? What corrective actions to take ? My parents also have BP but not very high.

I’ve just started swimming for around 1 hour (30 mts of actual swimming). Is that enough ? Is heart attack at such a young age possible ? Kindly advise.

Can Husbands High BP meds cause infertility?

My husband and I have been TTC for about five months. I think I’m healthy for the most part, but my husband has high blood pressure and is on Benazepril (lotensin). Can this cause problems with his sperm. I heard that some BP meds can cause problems but I’m not sure if his can. Has anyone gotten prego with their mate taking these kinds of meds? Thanks.

I heard that it can cause Kidney failure. How and why? What does our blood pressure have to do with the kidney’s? All I know is that our kidneys filter out toxins and if they don’t filter out properly that can cause high blood pressure. but other then that I don’t know.

I have high blood pressure and cholesterol in which I take medication for both. I experience constant pain all over my entire body espesially in my back and neck and it is all the time and have had this for the last few months the worse. I was not injured so I am wondering if those problems could cause pain or if it could be something else.

How to lower High Systolic BP?

I recently had a very difficult series of episodes in my life (lasting about 1.5 years). I gained a lot of weight and found that I now have high systolic BP. It’s been a year since I first found this out. I’ve lost the weight, eat much more sensibly (limit my saturated fat and salt intakes), and do aerobic excercise every day. But I find that my systolic BP hasn’t been going down. I am fairly young (30’s) and am very concerned about this. What else can I do to bring my systolic BP back down to ‘normal’? And, provided that I stick to a healthy diet and regular cardio excercise, how long do you think it should take before my BP starts to go down (if at all)? I understand that if it goes down, that this will take some time and I have patience- but I just want to see signs of progress to know that I am doing the right thing. Any suggestions for what I should do?

Why are Potassium tablets so low in the DV%?

I have looked at all the other supplements at GNC, like Vitamin C and Magnesium for example, and they have well over 100% of the DV. However, Potassium is only like 3 or 4% of the daily value, why is this? It seems pointless to buy if that is all the Potassium you are getting.
