Grammar
An odd sentence
Beloved pets not only relieve stress by lowering our blood pressure and heart rates, they also may prevent heart disease altogether.

I think "relieve stress" should switch place with "lowering out blood pressure and heart rate" with slight word form changing?relieve to relieving and lowering to lower?that the sentence can make sense.
I'd like to know what you think about this.

They are two separate afflictions in this passage; they do not have a cause-and-effect relationship here. Be sure that you are reading what is written, without incorporating other peripheral knowledge that you may possess.
