Hypertension is called "the silent killer". What is the cause of hypertension?

I believe everyone has heard of hypertension, and some people have such patients around them. What is hypertension called? Silent killer? He has a great influence on people's health. As for how this disease is caused, I believe many people are not clear. According to statistics, one in four adults is hypertensive, and the incidence rate is really high. Many people die of this disease every year. Let's talk about the causes of hypertension in the following small series!

The first is heredity. Hypertension has a genetic tendency. If your parents have high blood pressure, then you probably have high blood pressure. The second is diet. If your diet is often heavy oil and salt, salt contains sodium ions. If you eat too much, it is likely to cause high blood pressure. So overweight and obesity can easily cause high blood pressure. Studies have found that with the increase of weight, the probability of suffering from hypertension will also increase. Smoking also has a certain influence on hypertension, and the probability of smokers suffering from hypertension is higher than that of non-smokers. Because smoking can stimulate our nerve center, we will feel excited, and then our blood pressure will rise. Finally, the probability of suffering from hypertension increases with age. Around us, the prevalence rate of middle-aged and elderly people is higher than that of young people.

Hypertension is? Silent killer? We should also pay attention to our health. In daily life, our diet should also be light, eating more fruits and vegetables and less fat. Take time out to exercise every day. Exercise also helps to prevent hypertension. If you can smoke, quit smoking in time, because smoking is harmful. Overweight people should also have their blood pressure measured regularly. In our life, overweight people are prone to get high blood pressure, exercise more and lose weight.

Hypertension is a cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, which has a great influence on our normal life and work. We must also have a sense of prevention. The above is Bian Xiao's point of view. It is also very difficult to completely cure hypertension. The most important thing is to pay more attention to your eating habits.
