High Blood Presure |
|||||||||
| High blood presure is also known as hypertension. If one has blood
preasure measuring more than 140/90mmHg then the person is suffering from
high blood pressure. High blood presure increases the risk of heart disease, kidney disease, stroke and dementia. If ones blood presure is high, it strains the arteries that circulate the blood around the body. This can cause the arteries to get clogged or get weaker. This in turn may cause narrow blood vessels and blood clots which may lead to damage of the brain of heart. Sometimes it may cause a blood vessel to rupture. High blood pressure also causes heart organ failure. This happens when the heart cannot supply enough blood to the necessary parts of the body. This may cause breathlessness in our chest and swollen ankles. Kidney failure and sight problems are other dangers of hypertension. Research shows that lowering of blood presure may lead to the prevention of some forms of dementia. Whether or not one has high or normal blood preasure, it should be noted that the higher the blood pressure, the greater the risk of stroke or heart disease. Hence one must adopt a positive lifestyle that will help in keeping the blood pressure low even if one does not have high blood presure. For both men and women, it is better to have low blood pressure than high blood preassure. A healthy person having low blood pressure but is still within the normal range when the person is at rest tends to live longer than one with higher normal blood presure.
