Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a silent killer. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that most people without symptoms of the disorder are unaware they have it. Because of this, it is important to have your blood pressure checked by a healthcare professional, who can make an overall assessment of your health. A person with hypertension has a blood pressure of *140 mmHg or higher, or a blood pressure of *90 mmHg or lower. Heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure are all related to the disease, but can be prevented.
A diet high in fats, salt, and sugar, an inactive lifestyle, or consuming alcohol and tobacco regularly increase your chances of developing hypertension. Various characteristics of hypertensives, regardless of age, were reported in a study by the Philippine Heart Association (PHA). These included a larger waist circumference and a higher body mass index. As you age, it’s also important to adjust your lifestyle in order to maintain good health. If you are 65 or older, you are at risk for hypertension according to the WHO. Hypertension is common in 72% of elderly people in the Philippines.
Consuming less salt, fat, and alcohol can help you prevent or manage hypertension. If you would like to lose weight, you don’t have to eat less food. Instead, you can replace unhealthy foods with more nutritious ones. Smoking should also be avoided.Getting your heart muscles pumping can also be achieved by incorporating physical activity into your day, like walking or yoga.
Manage your stress so you can recover and prepare for the next day.
