What is High Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is the force of blood against the arteries walls the moment while the heart pumps. High Blood Pressure or Hypertension refers to the state in which this force is high enough to cause other health concerns such as heart disease, heart stroke, kidney failure, etc.

Some of the most common causes for this condition are stress, obesity, thyroid disorders, genetics, smoking, too much salt intake, and shortage of physical activities. High blood pressure can quietly deteriorate your body for years till you notice its symptoms. What are Its Causes?

Natural Ways to Avoid High Blood Pressure Now we are going to reveal the 10 health risks associated with high blood pressure and natural ways to avoid them. These simple tips will greatly help you in getting alert so that you can better solve the issue before it’s too late.

Kidney Failure High blood pressure is one of the main causes of kidney failure. This hinders its natural tendency to filter out the toxins and so the pollutants keep on accumulating in the body resulting in its permanent damage. This needs dialysis or kidney transplantation.

Brain Damage High blood pressure can cause dementia, mild cognitive impairment, stroke and transient ischemic attack. These occur due to blood clots, resulting in poor supply of the blood and other nutrients in the brain.

Deteriorated Heart High BP causes various heart disorders. Enlarged left heart is a condition when high BP forces the heart to work harder than necessary in order to pump blood causing the left ventricle to thicken or stiffen. In case of heart failure, the muscles of heart get wear out over time.

Deteriorated heart In coronary artery disease, the blood cannot flow freely through the arteries resulting in chest pain or irregular heart rhythms.

Damage to the Arteries High BP stiffens the flexible arteries causing hindrance in the smooth flow of blood throughout the body, resulting in heart failure, heart attack, kidney failure, and blocked arteries in arms or legs. Chronic high blood flow through a weak artery results in enlargement or bulging of arteries that cause life- threatening internal bleeding.

Retinopathy In this case, blood vessels that supply blood to the retina of eye get damaged resulting in bleeding in the eye and ultimately blurred vision or complete loss of vision. Persons having both Diabetes and Hypertension are at greater risk of this problem.

Choroidopathy In this condition, fluid is built up under the retina due to bleeding of blood vessels that supply the blood towards the retina, ultimately resulting in distorted vision or scarring.

Optic Neuropathy It is a condition in which clogged blood flow damages the optic nerve. It is capable to kill the nerve cells in the eyes, which may lead to bleeding within the eye or vision impairment.

Sexual Dysfunction As the time passes, high BP hardens the walls of arteries that cause poor blood flow to the genitals. Men aren’t able to achieve and maintain erection and women too lose proper lubrication and sensation. Both of these conditions ultimately lead to loss of desire in intercourse.

Bone Loss Hypertension leads to excess of calcium deposition in the urine which is excreted out frequently. This results in osteoporosis, a condition in which calcium is taken from the bones by the body making them weak and fragile and so getting fractures more often is quite common.

Sleep Troubles In this condition, the throat muscles get relaxed leading to snoring of the individual. This occurs due to high blood pressure.

Natural Ways to Control Hypertension Follow habits like exercising, limiting alcohol, reducing sodium intake, avoiding processed food, staying away from tobacco, boosting potassium content in diet, cutting down caffeine intake and controlling excessive mental stress is a great help in balancing your blood pressure.
