What I learned about high blood pressure
1. Blood pressure serves to deliver nutrients to different parts of our body
2. Stress is a common reason for high blood pressure
It signals danger to the body, which leads to constant alertness.
3. Stress can be controlled through meditation and conscious breathing
It's a matter of conditioning.
4. Smoking reduces the blood's ability to carry oxygen
As a result, higher blood pressure is required to supply different parts of the body with oxygen.
5. Blood pressure above 140/90 is considered elevated
Damage has actually been proven from a systolic value of 160 or higher.
6. A better supply of potassium and magnesium prevents high blood pressure

7. It's better to take medication than risk a heart attack or stroke
8. Endurance sports and strength training are good for regulating blood pressure
9. Donating blood has a positive effect
It immediately relieves the pressure a bit. The newly formed red blood cells are more elastic.
10. Diabetes is a common reason for high blood pressure
Consuming less sugar and carbohydrates is a good idea.
