The medical definition is: increased peripheral resistance to the arteries.
If untreated, it will eventually causes health problems, such as heart disease. Because pressure and cardiovascular disease are connected, there is a high association with the risk of developing heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney disease and death.How is our pressure measured?Our pressure is determined by the amount of blood the heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in the arteries. If the heart pumps more blood and cardiac arteries are narrow from cholesterol plaques, etc., the higher blood pressure is.Top Number ReadingsSystolic is the top reading and it measures the amount of pressure that blood exerts on the arteries when the heart is beating.Diastolic is the bottom reading and it determines the amount of pressure in the arteries between heartbeats.
An elevation in this number is of great concern because this is when the heart is supposed to be at rest. This is known as primary or essential hypertension. With the specific cause of this disease unknown, there are risk factors that contribute to the development of this medical condition.What We Can’t ChangeAgeAs we age, the older we get, the greater tendency we have in developing changes in our pressure.
This is due to arteriosclerosis, hardening of the arteries.Alcohol IntakeThe intake of more than one to two drinks per day tends to affect people who are sensitive to alcohol.
Birth control pillsOral contraceptives have a tendency to produce physical changes in women.EthnicityAfrican Americans develop high blood pressure more often than Caucasians. They even develop this condition at a younger age and because of this they have a tendency to develop more severe complications sooner in their life.GenderMales have a greater tendency of developing this illness and this likelihood varies according to age and among various ethnic groups.Socioeconomic statusIt has been determined that people who are less educated and ones of a lower socioeconomic class are more prone in developing this condition.. People who reside in the southeastern United States, both Caucasian and African American, develop this illness more than residents of other regions.What We Can ChangeObesityObese people have a greater tendency in developing medical problems than people who are within a normal body weight.
Also, the manner in which a person’s body accumulates body fat plays a significant role. For example, people who gain weight around their abdomen tend to have a greater tendency in developing high blood pressure and other health conditions.Sodium intake There are some people who have a high sensitivity to sodium intake and as a result their blood pressure increases significantly when they use it salt. It has been determined that Americans take in up to 10-15 times more salt than they need. This is because Americans eat a lot of fast foods and processed foods that contain high levels of salt.
