Researchers at University of California have found that people who earn less have a higher risk of suffering from high blood pressure.

The researchers concluded that doubling the wages could reduce the risk of hypertension among 30 percent of young employees and 35 percent of women.
“Wages are part of the employment environment that easily can be changed. Policymakers can raise the minimum wage, which tends to increase wages overall and could have significant public-health benefits”, lead researcher J Paul Leigh said.
