What Would Change If We Lived For 200 Years ?
Imagine embarking on seemingly impossible expeditions and living to be 300 years old. In this hypothetical scenario, our aging process would be slower, as we wouldn't simply wake up one day and start living for three centuries. Advancements in medicine would be responsible for extending our lifespan, providing us with the opportunity for a longer and healthier life. Consequently, healthcare policies, practices, and insurance companies would adapt to accommodate this new reality.

6 BEST HOME REMEDIES FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a frequent disorder that impacts the arteries. The force exerted by the blood on the walls of the blood vessels is known as blood pressure. Hypertension refers to a condition in which the body's blood pressure is persistently above normal. Untreated hypertension increases the risk of death from cardiovascular disease, stroke, and kidney failure. The only way to know if you have high blood pressure is to get it examined, as some people with the condition may not have any symptoms at all. Hypertension is typically defined as a blood pressure reading of 130 over 80 mm Hg, where mm Hg is the unit of measurement for blood pressure. Systolic pressure and diastolic pressure are the driving forces behind blood pressure. Blood pressure is measured as systolic when the heart contracts and pushes blood out of the ventricles and into the arteries of the circulatory system, and diastolic when the heart relaxes in between beats. Damage to the arteries and the heart can result from high blood pressure, which forces these organs to function harder and less efficiently. The reason high blood pressure is termed the "silent killer" is because its effects typically go undetected for a while before revealing themselves as major health issues down the road.

LAUGHTER
Laughter is widely regarded as the finest medicine. It is a human feeling with the ability to break through barriers, connect people, and bring joy into people's lives. When we laugh, we feel a sensation of relief as our muscles relax, and we get a little respite from our daily lives. Laughter improves blood vessel function and boosts blood inflow, which can help help you from a heart attack and other cardiovascular diseases. It helps control the stress hormone cortisol, reduce blood pressure, and increase the creation of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.

My Journey With ICL Eye Surgery
Whenever the subject of corrective eye surgery comes up, most people think of procedures like LASIK and PRK. These procedures are where vision is corrected using lasers and tissue removal from the eye. For most people, these procedures is a vast improvement in quality of life and vision, and most people don't regret their decision. The technology and technique has continued to improve over the years, too.
