Maintaining healthy blood pressure levels is essential for overall well-being. With the increasing prevalence of hypertension, exploring effective management strategies becomes vital. Homoeopathy offers natural solutions for blood pressure control by addressing the root cause of hypertension.
What is Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)?
Hypertension, commonly known as high blood
pressure, is a medical condition in which the force of the blood against
the walls of your arteries is consistently too high. This puts extra strain on
your heart and blood vessels, which can eventually lead to serious health
problems such as heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and eye problems.
Hypertension is often called a "silent killer" because it typically
has no symptoms, and many people may not know they have it until significant
damage occurs.
Cardiovascular
Health Range
Blood
pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and is expressed
with two numbers:
- Systolic pressure: The first (higher) number
measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats and pumps out
blood.
- Diastolic pressure: The second (lower) number
measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart is resting between
beats.
Normal
blood pressure is less
than 120/80 mmHg. When the blood pressure consistently exceeds these values, it
may indicate hypertension.
Stages of Hypertension
- Normal: 120/80 mmHg
- Elevated: Systolic between 120-129
and diastolic less than 80 mmHg
- Hypertension Stage 1: Systolic between 130-139
or diastolic between 80-89 mmHg
- Hypertension Stage 2: Systolic 140 or higher or
diastolic 90 or higher
- Hypertensive Crisis: Systolic over 180 and/or
diastolic over 120 (requires immediate medical attention)
