Beautiful Eastern Uganda places! My biggest achievement of the day is supporting my daughter to get to the top of Tororo Rock at the end of 2023. Somehow, it was much easier for the boys, but with some patience, we all got there! Happy 2024 to all of you.

Interesting. See what's coming out of CROI 2024 regarding management of prehypertension. I guess there are many possible approaches. I am curious to know the results of long-term follow-up up for the dif approaches.

Does the type of exercise you do matter in Blood pressure lowering effect? Read about Tai Chi which is better than routine aerobic exercises in lowering BP in pre-hypertensives! Effect of Tai Chi vs Aerobic Exercise in Prehypertension
