High blood pressure or hypertension is a major health problem faced by many people today. This health problem, which used to be seen only in the elderly, is now more common among young people and children. Wrong lifestyle is the villain behind this. Hypertension is the pressure felt in the blood vessels.
It can be measured by how much pressure the blood vessels feel when the heart contracts. Another method can be calculated based on the pressure felt during the resting time between heartbeats. There are many reasons for this condition. Elevated blood pressure can cause damage to the heart and organs such as the kidney and liver.
The main reason for this is unhealthy diet and lack of exercise. Eating foods high in salt, foods high in saturated fat, foods high in transfats, and lack of fruits and vegetables can all lead to high blood pressure. People who drink too much and smoke are more likely to have hypertension.
Blurred vision, headache, nosebleeds, irregular heart beat, ringing in the ears, dizziness, anxiety, chest pain, colic, fatigue, nervousness and anxiety are all symptoms caused by this. It can be reduced to some extent by making some changes in lifestyle. It leads to many complications if not controlled at the beginning. Watch the video to know more about it.
