Answer to Question #3
False
Rationale: “High blood” is an illness condition that is associated with African American culture in the rural South. Many health care professionals make the wrong assumption that “high blood” is the same as high blood pressure or hypertension; although there are similarities, the cultural explanation of “high blood” is different from the biomedical explanation of high blood pressure or hypertension.
