High blood pressure! Blood pressure is the pressure exerted by a blood vessel on a blood vessel wall. Under normal conditions it measures 120/60. Blood pressure tends to rise slightly with age. Then a little more pressure than this measure is considered normal. But it is difficult if the upper pressure is more than 140 or the lower pressure is more than 90. Blood pressure can rise in two ways. Acute and chronic. Sudden onset of high blood pressure due to arousal or any other cause can lead to disaster. This is acute high blood pressure. This can lead to sudden heart failure. Stroke can also occur. In the case of chronic high blood pressure, the pressure measurement may not be too high all of a sudden. But maintaining high blood pressure for long periods of time can cause damage to the heart muscle. Because , there is more pressure on the heart to pump more blood. Apart from that, if you suffer from high blood pressure for a long time, the blood vessels become hard. They lose their elasticity. The inner wall of the blood vessel becomes thick. The resulting block is created. All in all, heart failure or heart attack. Stroke can also occur if an artery ruptures due to inability to tolerate high blood pressure. Therefore , the charge of maintaining blood pressure can be fatal! Symptoms of high blood pressure: ------------------------------- There are no such symptoms. So many people do not notice that the blood pressure has increased . For this, after 35 years, blood pressure needs to be measured from time to time. And if you suffer from high blood pressure for a long time, you should check your blood pressure once a week. You can keep a pressure gauge at home. Why the pressure increases! ------------------------ 1) Related to aging. 2) Eating too much salt in the food can increase the pressure. 3) Pressure increases with weight gain. 4) Weight gain if you sit without physical activity. Immediately increases blood pressure. 5) Increased stress or arousal increases the secretion of the hormone noradrenaline from the adrenaline glands , which raises blood pressure. Diet and blood pressure --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you gain weight, your heart will pump more. As a result, blood pressure will increase. So body weight should be controlled according to height. So food is very important in this case. Thus, for high blood pressure, you need a dash diet. There will be a variety of fruits and lots of vegetables in the daily diet. This is because they all contain potassium and lots of antioxidants and fiber , which help control blood pressure. If you suffer from blood pressure problems, you should eat less animal protein. If blood pressure is high, salt should be kept in mind. Sodium in salt raises blood pressure. You should not eat more than 2-3 (half a teaspoon) of salt per day. Processed food , junk food , tin food , packet food , ready to eat food , pickles , chips etc. should be excluded . Because they contain salt as a preservative. Drink plenty of water. Because water is diuretic. Water balances the body's pH and flushes out unnecessary harmful substances from the body. When these are released, the blood pressure in the body decreases. Stress and Blood Pressure ----------------------- Blood pressure rises when stress increases. The opposite is also true. Increased blood pressure increases stress. Increased stress puts pressure on the nerves. As a result, the pressure increases. So stress management is very important to control blood pressure. To deal with stress without putting it simply. How to deal with stress! ------------------------------------- You can get yourself out of the grip of stress if you want.
