Olga Kopylova

120 to 80. A book on how to conquer hypertension and not relieve pressure

I express my gratitude to the wonderful Russian doctors who shared valuable advice on the treatment of hypertension with my mentors and colleagues in the journalism workshop for professional help, my husband for spiritual support, and all the listeners of Radio Russia who inspired me to write this book.

Introduction to the Doctor's Advice series

Dear friends! Many of those who picked up this book are listeners of Radio Russia. For seven years now, on the waves of this radio station, the “Advise, Doctor!” Program has been broadcast. Over the years, the program has gained immense popularity. They listen to her not only in Russia. The luminaries of domestic medicine, the outstanding doctors of our time live advise radio listeners from all over the globe. Letters from listeners come from Germany, France, Israel, Australia, Mexico!

We strive for our program to become a kind of bridge between doctors and patients, teach people to carefully and responsibly treat their health, listen to their body, hear the distress signals that the body gives us, and ultimately competently take care of it.

The program “Advise a Doctor!” Is aired on the country's main state radio, has a social focus, and is devoid of commercial overtones. The guests of the “Advise Doctor!” Program are reputable doctors, sports trainers, physical therapy physiologists, and authors of original wellness techniques. All our guests have a medical education and almost all have a doctorate or a candidate of science degree. We try to maintain a high status of the program, corresponding to the level of the main radio station of the Russian Federation.

Conversations with the guests of the “Advise Doctor!” Program always take place in an atmosphere of goodwill and a high degree of spirituality. We want doctors to come on air “without white coats” and communicate with our students on equal terms, not only as high-class professionals, but just as people who are also sick, try to cope with bad habits and solve their psychological problems, which sometimes they experience fear and insecurity, doubt dogmas, do not declare common truths, and along with everyone they seek answers to complex questions of being.

We are always sincerely trying to help our listeners asking questions live. Our interlocutors-listeners have the opportunity to further consult on-site for free with a guest of the program to whom they asked a question. We are trying to help many listeners already outside the framework of the broadcast, as the problems of people are sometimes so urgent that we simply cannot turn off the microphone and forget about everything and leave the studio. We regularly organize meetings with doctors - guests of the program. During such meetings, radio listeners have the opportunity to communicate in person with high-class specialists and directly ask them their questions. Information about upcoming meetings is always broadcast on the “Advise Doctor!” Program.

The book you are holding was written by the host of the program “Advise a Doctor!” Olga Kopylova based on the materials of her broadcast. We plan to regularly publish books in the series "Advise a Doctor!" On the most interesting and relevant topics voiced in the program. Many listeners in their letters ask to repeat this or that broadcast, answer a question that was not heard on the air, send a description of this or that applied healing technique, an interested recipe, repeat the tests for self-diagnosis, send the address of the clinic or doctor who participated in the program. Now we have the opportunity to satisfy these requests. A series of books, “Advise a Doctor!” Allows us to do this!

It is important to emphasize that our books will not repeat the programs that were broadcast on air. The format of the print publication allows you to include in them significantly more useful information than the 47-minute radio broadcast. The best thematic programs plus everything that remains behind the scenes, now we will publish on the pages of a series of books with the same name - “Advise, doctor!”. Many unique health recipes from leading Russian doctors, the best healing methods, tests for self-diagnosis, valuable recommendations of the luminaries of domestic medicine - all useful applied information is now available to everyone, look for it in books authored by the famous journalist, host of the “Advise, Doctor! »Olga Kopylova.

We wish all readers of this book good health!

Creative team of the program “Advise, Doctor!” Radio of Russia

Dear friends! Every Saturday, we meet with many of you on the Radio Russia channel in the “Advise Doctor!” Program. And despite the fact that kilometers separate us and we are unfamiliar personally, I always feel your invisible presence on the other side of the air, I always feel your support and human warmth, I appreciate your sincere interest in the program. Every time I look forward to a new meeting with you, prepare for it, try to make the program as interesting and useful as possible. If during a live broadcast it is possible to help someone with advice, support morally, it is always a great joy for me and an incentive for creativity. I really love my work, I always take pleasure in something new and am happy that now I have the opportunity to meet with you on the pages of a series of books compiled on the basis of our broadcast materials! I hope you enjoy these books, inspire you to fight diseases and help you cope with them.

Each book in the Doctor's Advice series is dedicated to a single disease. For example, in the book you are holding in your hands, I have collected important and interesting recommendations from the guests of our program for the treatment of hypertension. Many of these recommendations were made in various programs of the “Advise

doctor! ”, I tried to put them together in one book. Such a combination of materials seems to me very valuable, because it happens that interesting tips for the treatment of a disease sound in programs devoted to completely different problems, and it’s unlikely that anyone can study all the programs. I had to collect interesting information and practical advice from doctors on the treatment of various diseases bit by bit from different transmissions.

In addition, much remains behind the scenes in the broadcast. We do not have time to tell something important, some questions do not fit into the framework of the broadcast, information about specific medicines, for example, cannot be voiced at all, since they can be considered advertising. If you saw how many folders with unique applied information that did not sound on the air about who, where and how today treats various diseases in Russia, went to the shelves of my home library! Taking this opportunity, I want to sincerely thank Eksmo Publishing House for giving me the opportunity to publish this valuable information that I collected in the best clinics of the country, during conversations with leading doctors of our time, from the sources they provided. I hope that the valuable recommendations published in these books will provide real help to readers in the fight against disease.

I would like to emphasize that the information I collected on each specific disease during the radio broadcasts and during the preparation for them is, of course, not exhaustive. There are many interesting books by other authors - reputable doctors, as well as other sources of information with which I recommend that every interested reader get acquainted.

I hope this book helps the reader navigate the sea of ​​popular medical literature. Choosing something truly valuable and useful with such an abundance of books is actually very difficult. On the pages of the publications of the series “Advise the Doctor!” I will give recommendations to readers what should be read on topics of interest.
