    Now lemme see which applies to me…I don’t smoke. That’s for a start. But I’m a 2nd hand smoker, thanks to my lame boss who smokes in the office LOL. I don’t drink, I jog almost everyday if I could. I love cheese though *guilty.

    And I hate jams. I think stress is related to high blood pressure no?

    Hi massy,

    Thanks for visiting my site. Yes, stress will cause blood pressure to increase temporary but the effect of long term stress is still unclear :)
