I Met DeMarcus Ware!

They say a picture is worth a thousand words! I attended an educational inservice this evening after work, sponsored by Novartis, about treatment of hypertension. Dr. Cook, cardiologist from North Carolina was the guest speaker, and he spoke of aggressively treating hypertension with combination medications whether they be ace inhibitors, beta blockers, or a DRI(Direct Renin Inhibitor), calcium channel blockers, and diuretics. One of the newer medications on the market to treat hypertension is called Tekturna. The inservice was held at the III Forks restraunt, and the food was superb. The other guest speaker of the evening...you guessed it, DeMarcus Ware of the Dallas Cowboys! He says he eats 6 meals a day and monitors his food more closely than when he was in college eating 3-4 hamburgers, fries, etc... He stated that he had hypertension in college, but has been able to keep it under control through diet and exercise. He seems like a man of good character, and I am glad that I had an opportunity to hear him speak and meet him.
