HYPERTENSION
Today let us talk about high blood pressure
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, means your blood moves through your arteries with too much force. This puts strain on your heart and blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems. It often has no symptoms, so many people don’t know they have it. A healthy blood pressure is below 120/80 mm Hg, while high blood pressure is typically 140/90 mm Hg or higher. It can be managed with a balanced diet, exercise, limiting salt and alcohol, and sometimes medication. Regular check-ups are important to catch and control hypertension early.
Next we shall talk about dietary approach in managing hypertension. Stay tuned
