Blood Pressure Problems: Changing food habits and living habits have become the cause of many diseases. Due to poor lifestyle, the problem of blood pressure ie BP has become common today. Usually in every other house you will definitely find a BP patient. Our heart pumps blood and transports it to different corners of the body. The pressure that the blood moves forward by exerting on the wall of our arteries is called blood pressure or BP. Due to increased BP, there is pressure on the arteries and heart, due to which people have heart attack or heart-related diseases.
There are two types of BP
First of all, understand that there are two types of BP. First systolic and second diastolic. The blood pressure of a healthy person is usually less than 120/80 mmHg. If a person’s BP is more or less than this, then he has a problem of BP. Due to high blood pressure, a person can have serious problems like stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney failure. Symptoms of BP are usually not visible at first, so it is important that you keep checking your BP regularly.
According to health nutritionist Bhakti Kapoor, high BP is a condition that affects the arteries of the body. If a person has high BP then the pressure of blood against the walls of the arteries increases continuously. This makes the heart work harder to pump blood. He told that if BP is not treated on time, then a person can have stroke, heart attack and other serious health problems. Bhakti Kapoor told that high BP can be prevented by lifestyle changes, non-smoking, exercise and good diet. He told that people who do not know about high BP in the beginning or who start having more problems of blood pressure, they need medicines. People who have high blood pressure are advised to take BP medicines daily.
