An increase in blood flow and a reduction in the resting heart rate lower the occurrence of hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, a medical condition in which blood pressure is chronically elevated. Persistent hypertension is one of the risk factors for strokes and heart attacks. A regimen of regular walking can assist some people in greatly increasing their blood flow and significantly decreasing their resting heart rate.
Which of the following can be correctly inferred from the statements above?
A, Individuals who walk on a regular basis do not run any risk of developing hypertension.
B, Individuals who do not walk on a regular basis run a high risk of developing hypertension.
C, Walking is the most effective method for increasing blood flow and decreasing a resting heart rate.
D, A program of regular walking for some people can lower a risk factor for strokes.
E, Only regular walking is necessary to lower the risk of heart attacks.

- Hypertension (chronic high blood pressure) increases the risk of strokes and heart attacks.
- Regular walking can help some people increase blood flow and decrease resting heart rate.
- Increased blood flow and a reduced resting heart rate can lower the occurrence of hypertension.
A. This is incorrect because the passage doesn't state that regular walking completely eliminates the risk of hypertension; it only says it helps reduce the occurrence for some people.
B. This is incorrect because the passage does not claim that people who don’t walk regularly are at a high risk of developing hypertension. It only states that walking can help reduce the risk for some people, but doesn't address the risk for non-walkers.
C. This is incorrect because the passage does not compare walking to other methods for improving blood flow and heart rate. It merely states that walking can assist some people.
D. This is correct. The passage explains that hypertension is a risk factor for strokes, and regular walking can help lower the occurrence of hypertension for some people, thereby lowering a risk factor for strokes.
E. This is incorrect because the passage does not state that walking alone is sufficient to lower the risk of heart attacks. Other factors may also play a role.
Answer D.

Answer D is correct because other answers mention out-of-range information and we just focus on people who have a regular walking habit and it DECREASES the risk (NOT most effective method or it gets rid of any chance relating to health issue)
