GRAHAM MACGREGOR, is a professor of Cardiovascular Medicine and chairman of Action on Salt.

Quoted in the Guardian recently, he said salt was “unequivocally bad” but admitted that getting this message across was not easy because salt is regarded as a normal part of our diet.

“It’s not,” he declared. Salt raised blood pressure and increased the risk of hypertension, known as the silent killer.

“High blood pressure is the biggest cause of death in the world,” Professor MacGregor said.

PRP can help improve skin texture

MANY of us, regardless of gender would love to have a more wrinkle free and youthful looking complexion staring back at us in the mirror, but think this is only achievable with Botox and fillers, this however is not the case.

A method now available is Platelet­Rich Plasma (PRP) injections, which gives amazing results when used on both our skin and scalp.

The PRP is derived from taking a sample of our blood, the growth factors, and bioactive proteins, which initiate and speed up tissue repair and regeneration are extracted with use of a specialised machine. This rich platelet plasma is then injected back into the desired treatment area of the pa­ tient, there is no risk of cross infection.

PRP can help improve our skin texture and tone, minimise the appearance of pores, smooth wrinkles, and fine lines, lighten pigmentation, treat acne scarring and stretch marks. It’s a perfect treat­ ment for patients who want their complexion to look its best.

These injections when used on the scalp stimulate new follicular hair growth and can help to counteract male or female baldness and hair thinning.
