What is Hypertension

2010-03-06T18:15:00.000-08:00

What is Hypertension?

Every time the hearth beats, it pushes the blood through the arteries: This is the “systolic” blood pressure. Between each contraction the hearth relaxes and the pressure drops, and this is called the “diastolic” pressure. Blood pressure varies a lot from person to person and depends on many factors, including age. The normal reading for an adult should be around 120 (systolic) and 80 (diastolic). Blood pressure goes up in a normal individual when he is subject to stress or physical activity, but in a person with hypertension, blood pressure is elevated even when he is at rest.

How Is It Measured?

Your blood pressure is highest when the heart contracts, pumping the blood. This is called systolic pressure; it's the top number in your blood pressure reading.

When your heart is at rest--between beats--your blood pressure falls. This is the diastolic pressure; it's the bottom number in your blood pressure reading.

A device called a Sphygmomanometer records pressure changes in millimeters of mercury or mm/Hg.

Mercury Sphygmomanometer

Dial type Sphygmomanometer

Digital type Sphygmomanometer

How High Is High?

Systolic (mm/Hg) Diastolic (mm/Hg)

Normal under 130 under 85

High Normal 130-139 85-89

High 140 and over 90 and over

Or with other words:

Normal blood pressure is below 120/80 mmHg.

Prehypertension is systolic pressure that's between 120 to 139 or diastolic pressure between 80 and 89.

Stage 1 hypertension is systolic pressure between 140 to 159 or diastolic pressure between 90 and 99.

Stage 2 hypertension is systolic pressure higher than 160 or diastolic pressure of 100 or higher.

Consistent elevated blood pressure is one of the most prominent dangers for a heart attack and greatly enhances the risk for a stroke. Hypertension is appropriately called "the silent killer" because many people often don’t know they have it until heart problems arise. Usually there are no symptoms until the condition becomes very severe. At that point headache, confusion, nose bleeding, shortness of breath, tingling of hands and feet, and a general feeling of discomfort can be an indication that something is wrong, otherwise most of the times hypertension is discovered only during a routine medical check up.

Most often hypertension is related to lifestyle. Weight problems, inactivity, stress, and wrong eating habits are all factors that can greatly affect hypertension. Not to mention excess alcohol, too much caffeine, and smoking, all habits with a very adverse effect. But often lifestyle changes are difficult to achieve. Exercising can be hard for many, even if it is a necessary sacrifice. Dieting is also very important, not so much in the sense of depriving yourself of certain types of food, as much as eating the right things. High blood pressure is often directly related to excessive sodium together with reduced potassium levels. A balanced nutrition and especially eating the proper foods can help enormously in controlling your blood pressure level. There is no magic formula but medical research can point us in the right direction.

High blood pressure symptoms

High Blood Pressure Symptoms

High blood pressure usually doesn't cause any symptoms in the early stages. Symptoms associated with high blood pressure can include:

Dizziness or dizzy spells

Headache

Nosebleeds

Causes of High Blood Pressure

In most cases of high blood pressure, the American Heart Association says there is no one identifiable cause. This kind of high blood pressure is called primary hypertension or essential hypertension. It is usually a combination of factors, such as:

Weight:

The greater your body mass, the more pressure there is on your artery walls. That's because more blood is produced to supply oxygen and nutrients to tissues in your body.

Activity level:

Lack of physical activity tends to increase heart rate, which forces your heart to work harder with each contraction.

Tobacco use:

Chemicals in cigarettes and tobacco can damage artery walls.

Sodium intake:

Excessive sodium in the diet can result in fluid retention and high blood pressure, especially in people sensitive to sodium.

Potassium intake:

Low potassium can result in elevated sodium in cells, because the two balance one another.

Stress:

Stress can raise blood pressure.

Alcohol consumption:

Excessive alcohol intake can, over time, increase the risk of heart disease.

Age:

The risk of high blood pressure increases as you get older.

Family history:

High blood pressure often runs in families.

A buildup of cholesterol causes arteries to become hardened, inelastic and narrowed. There may even be a higher-than-normal flow of blood, or the heart may beat harder or faster than it should. Any of these conditions increases the pressure of the blood against the artery walls.

High blood pressure can also be caused by an underlying condition, such as kidney disease, hormonal disorders, thyroid disease, adrenal gland disease, and the use of certain drugs, such as oral contraceptives, or herbs such as licorice. This type of high blood pressure is called secondary hypertension.

Natural Remedies for High Blood Pressure

Lifestyle changes and natural remedies may help to control high blood pressure, but your doctor may also recommend medication to lower high blood pressure. It is important to work with your doctor, because untreated high blood pressure may damage organs in the body and increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, brain hemorrhage, kidney disease, and vision loss.

Hypertension and Food

If you have high blood pressure, foods high in calcium, potassium, magnesium, vitamin C, and omega-3 fatty acids are all very valuable.

Calcium appears to have a blood pressure-reducing effect. Foods high in calcium are milk, fresh cheese, yoghurt, broccoli and cabbages, dry beans, salmon, soybean and tofu.
Potassium helps maintain blood pressure levels. Clinical studies have indicated that consuming food high in potassium helps lower blood pressure. Vegetables high in potassium are, (among others,) tomatoes, potatoes, cantaloupes, bananas, beets, Brussels sprouts, avocados, and oranges.

Magnesium has the effect of relaxing the blood vessels and allows the blood to flow easier. Foods high in magnesium are chocolate, avocados, spinach, almonds, sunflower seed, and barley.

Vitamin C seems to be expanding blood vessels and constricted arteries, consequently helping to lower blood pressure. Red cabbage, red bell peppers, citrus fruits (mandarins, oranges, etc), kiwis, strawberries and potatoes all are rich in vitamin C.

Omega-3 fatty acids present in fish, especially salmon, tuna fish and trout, help the circulation. The presence of these good fats makes blood unlikely to clump and form clots that may cause heart attacks.

Flaxseed oil seems to be inhibiting the inflammation that causes artery plaque and poor circulation, thus helping against high blood pressure.

Garlic has been the subject of several clinical studies and its ability to drastically lower blood pressure has been demonstrated.

Important !: It is imperative that you consult your doctor before implementing any changes in your lifestyle, or your diet; definitely talk to your doctor before taking any supplements. Some over-the-counter substances can be contraindicated for you, especially if taken when using prescription drugs. Also depriving yourself of certain substances or taking excess of others, can cause serious health problems, therefore check with your physician first!

Control your Sodium

2010-03-06T17:30:00.000-08:00

Control your Sodium

Last but not least it is important to implement a low-salt diet, or we should better say a low-sodium diet. Time and again has been demonstrated that sodium intake has a direct effect on blood pressure levels.

The reason why sodium affects blood pressure is still debated, and some researchers think that many people are sensitive to sodium and can build up hypertension after an extended excess of sodium ingestion. How much sodium you need per day can be established only by your physician. Only 500 mg of sodium per day are indispensable in our diet, but sodium restricted diets can range from 1000 mg to 4000 mg depending on the individual needs. Consider that 600 mg of sodium corresponds to 1/4 of a teaspoon of salt and one teaspoon of baking soda contains 1000 mg.

Reducing sodium intake is not easy and requires constant attention and a significant effort because sodium is present in food under many different forms: Sodium chloride is salt, used in cooking, at the table, in canning and in preserving. Table salt is 40% of its weight is sodium; Monosodium glutamate or MSG, is a seasoning used in bouillons, in restaurant cooking, and in many packaged foods; Sodium bicarbonate or Baking soda, (and similarly baking powder) is used as a leavener for breads and cakes, sometimes added to vegetables in cooking, and used against indigestion; Sodium nitrite, is used in cured meats, salame, and sausages. Many sodium compounds such as Sodium sulfite, Sodium hydroxide, Sodium propionate, etc are used in industrially processed food like cheese, breads, cakes, cereals, dried fruits, vegetables, chocolate milks, and ice cream.

Food products can be defined as low sodium on the label by the American Heart Association only if they have less than 141 mg of sodium per serving. When you buy prepackaged food, read the labels and look for sodium (symbol NA) and soda (baking soda or sodium bicarbonate). Go for products that give the least amount of sodium, but base your judgment on the amount you eat, not on the serving size indicated on the package. Consider that most “high-salt” foods like chips, ketchup or salad dressing indicate unrealistic small portion to avoid scaring the customers.

If you take any medication check with your doctor and pharmacist because some drugs, like antacids, have high amount of sodium. Choose fresh food over frozen or canned. Stay away from salty foods such as Anchovies, Bacon, Bouillons, Canned Foods, Cheese, Cold Cuts (Prosciutto, Salame, Baloney, Ham, Sausages), Condiments, Cooking Sauces, Cottage Cheese, Croutons, Cured meat, Gravy, Hot Dogs, Olives, Pickles, Potato chips, Processed fish, Salad Dressings, Salsa, Salted nuts, Snack foods, Soy Sauce, Tortilla chips.

Caution: A low-sodium diet if difficult to realize, but is also possible to overdo it, with potential undesired consequences. For this reason, if symptoms of high blood pressure persist, don’t keep reducing your salt intake but consult with your physician.

What to eat and what not

2010-03-06T17:15:00.000-08:00

What to eat and what not?

What’s good and what’s not. If you have high blood pressure, the first thing to do is to

reduce excess alcohol,
reduce caffeine, and
quit smoking,

All habits with a very adverse effect.

To help lower blood pressure you can

increase consumption of vegetables,

better if organically grown

Plant foods are rich in vitamins, fibers, minerals, and potassium:
Green leaf vegetables, rich in calcium and magnesium are especially beneficial.

Whole grains and legumes have high fiber content to lower cholesterol.

Broccoli and citrus fruit are rich in vitamin C.

Celery is high in sodium but contains a natural compound by the name of phthalide with lowering blood pressure capability.

Onion and garlic (also in the form of supplement) are very beneficial.

Flaxseed oil, nuts, walnuts,

Fish (salmon, tuna, herring and mackerel) are rich in omega 3 fatty acid.

Baked potato

Take four leaves of holy basil and two leaves of margosa with two to four teaspoonfuls of water, empty stomach, for a week. This helps in reducing high blood pressure.
Include amla, apple, lemon, papaya, watermelon, carrot, onion, garlic, tomato, and green vegetables in your diet. Indian gooseberry (amla) taken along with milk daily helps in lowering blood pressure.
Keep fast once a week or in 15 days. This helps in normalizing the digestive system, but if you feel weak and tired, fasting should not be done.
Banana, litchi, mango, orange, pomegranate, coconut, pineapple, grapes and raisins are beneficial for healthy heart but guava, jackfruit and tamarind are harmful for the heart.
Take wheat and gram flour in equal quantities and eat chapatti made from this flour.
Radish, drumstick, cabbage, pumpkin, carrots, tomato, bitter, gourd, spinach, cucumber, spearmint and coriander leaves are good for the heart patient.
Cauliflower, brinjal, lady’s finger and mustard leaves are harmful for the heart. Mustard leaves have less fiber content and more protein, so the heart has to work more by supplying more blood to digest these leaves, putting pressure on the heart.
Take isabgul in curd. You will feel satisfied after taking 1-2 teaspoons of isabgul in curd which increases the fibrous content of the diet.

Refrain from adding salt to homemade dishes; add herbs and spices as flavor enhancements instead.
Avoid cooking with bullions.
And finally if you eat out, talk to the waiter and request for your food to be prepared without salt. Most restaurants will accommodate your needs
To be avoided all foods containing saturated fats, like animal products, animal fat, and margarine.
Avoid also trans-fatty acid, sugar, and refined carbohydrates contained in processed foods.

High Blood Pressure treatment using

Garlic is regarded as an effective means of lowering blood pressure. It is said to reduce spasms of the small arteries. It also slows down the pulse rate and modifies the heart rhythm, besides relieving the symptoms of dizziness, numbness, shortness of breath, and the formation of gas within the digestive tract. It may be taken in the form of raw cloves or two to three capsules a day.

However, garlic should only be used under the supervision of a qualified health practitioner. Garlic can thin the blood (reduce the ability of blood to clot) similar to aspirin. Garlic may interact with many drugs and supplements such as the prescription "blood-thinners" drugs such as Coumadin (warfarin) or Trental (pentoxifylline), aspirin, vitamin E, gingko. It is usually recommended that people taking garlic stop in the weeks before and after any type of surgery.

(for further information and details visit Garlic )

High Blood Pressure treatment using Indian Gooseberry

Indian gooseberry is another effective remedy for high blood pressure. A tablespoon each of fresh indian gooseberry juice and honey mixed together should be taken every morning in this condition.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Lemon

Lemon is also regarded as a valuable food to control high blood pressure. It is a rich source of vitamin P which is found both in the juice and peel of the fruit. This vitamin is essential for preventing capillary fragility.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Grapefruit

Grapefruit is useful in preventing high blood pressure. The vitamin P content in the fruit is helpful in toning up the arteries.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Watermelon

Watermelon is another valuable safeguard against high blood pressure. A substance extracted from watermelon seeds is said to have a definite action in dilating the blood vessels, which results in lowering the blood pressure. The seeds, dried and roasted, should be taken in liberal quantities.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Rice

Rice has a low-fat, low-cholesterol, and low-salt content. It makes a perfect diet for those hypertensive persons who have been advised salt-restricted diets. Calcium in brown rice, in particular, soothes and relaxes the nervous system and helps relieve the symptoms of high blood pressure.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Potato

Potatoes, specially in boiled form, are a valuable food for lowering blood pressure. When boiled with their skin, they absorb very little salt. Thus they can form a useful addition to a salt-free diet recommended for patients with high blood pressure. Potatoes are rich in potassium but not in sodium salts. The magnesium present in the vegetable exercises beneficial effects in lowering blood pressure.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Parsley

Parsley is very useful in high blood pressure. It contains elements, which help maintain the blood vessels, particularly, the capillaries. It keeps the arterial system in a healthy condition. It may be taken as a beverage by simmering 20 gm of fresh parsley leaves gently in 250 ml of water for a few minutes. This may be drunk several times daily.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Rauwolfia

Among the herbs, rauwolfia is the best remedy for high blood pressure. Alkaloids of this drug, which have a direct effect on hypertension, have been isolated and are being widely used by practitioners of modem medicine, but they have certain unpleasant side-effects which the drug, taken in raw form, does not have. Practitioners of the Indian system of medicine have, therefore, preferred to use the root of the drug in a powdered from. Half a teaspoon of this drug, taken thrice a day, is very effective in hypertension.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Vegetable Juice

Raw vegetable juices, especially carrot and spinach juices, taken separately or in combination, are also beneficial in the treatment of high blood pressure. If taken in combination, 300 ml of carrot juice and 200 ml of spinach juice should be mixed to make 500 ml or half a litre of the juice, and taken daily. If taken separately, one glass should be taken twice daily, morning and evening.

High Blood Pressure treatment using Dietary Calcium and Potassium

Recent studies have revealed an important link between dietary calcium and potassium and hypertension. Researchers have found that people who take potassium-rich diets have a low incidence of hypertension even if they do not control their salt intake. They have also found that people with hypertension do not seem to get much calcium in the form of dairy products. These two essential nutrients seem to help the body secrete excess sodium and are involved in important functions which control the working of the vascular system. Potassium is found in abundance in fruits and vegetables, and calcium in dairy products.

Fish oil

Preliminary studies suggest that fish oil may have a modest effect on high blood pressure. Although fish oil supplements often contain both DHA (docohexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), there is some evidence that DHA is the ingredient that lowers high blood pressure.

Folic acid

Folate is a B vitamin necessary for formation of red blood cells. It may help to lower high blood pressure in some people, possibly by reducing elevated homocysteine levels.

Amla

1 table spoon of amla juice and honey should be taken every morning.

Cayenne Pepper

In the half cup of lukewarm water add half tea sp. cayenne pepper. Drink when needed. This is a strong home measure to decrease BP.

Papaya

Take fresh papaya every morning on empty stomach at least for a month. It is also a good home remedy for BP.

Hot water

Hot foot or legs bath for 10 minutes and hot compress over the heart are the water treatment which proved to be effective, when no doctor and no medicine available.

Walking barefoot

Walking barefoot on green grass for 15-20 min daily also improves blood circulation and helps

to maintain blood pressure normal.

As you have understood, there is not one remedy to help you keep your BP normal. Don’t hope to find one it here and expect positive result, and in case you don’t get it, don’t blame the site, the herbal doctors and all those, who advised to you to go for natural treatment.

Natural treatment is a complex thing, it is based on your style of life, which is expected to be a healthy one, which also includes a healthy food and only in addition to this you may choose herbal treatment that is recommended here. There are no two equal bodies, what may help one, may not help the other one. First change your life. It seemed to be a normal life for you, but analyze it now, when you are equipped with some knowledge about healthy life. Think over which aspects you may change, make these changes your routine and only then choose a remedy that seems to you the most appropriate, try it carefully and if you see a positive result, you may go on with it, if no changes were observed, try another one till you find the one that is YOURS.

GOOD LUCK!
