Managing Blood Pressure for a Healthier Life
Blood pressure is the measure of the force exerted by circulating blood on the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps. This pressure naturally fluctuates—lower when you’re resting or sleeping and higher during moments of stress or excitement. However, as people age, blood pressure often rises, and if it becomes chronically elevated, it can lead to serious health concerns.
The Risks of Hypertension
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a silent but dangerous condition. Left untreated, it increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and other complications. Over time, elevated blood pressure strains the heart and arteries, making them less efficient and more prone to damage.
