Understand 8 reasons for high blood pressure and tips for high blood pressure prevention and cure from Swami Mukundananda. As Swamiji graciously explains in this video, the heart is a muscle that pumps blood around the body. The pumping of blood creates pressure. Blood pressure is the amount of force exerted against the walls of the arteries as blood flows through them. If a person has high blood pressure, it means that the walls of the arteries are receiving too much pressure on a constant basis. High blood pressure is also known as hypertension. In the United States, according to the American Heart Association (AHA), about 1 in every 3 adults over 20 years of age have high blood pressure. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) estimate that about two-thirds of people over the age of 65 in the U.S. have high blood pressure. Some of the reasons for high blood pressure are 1) Age. 2) Family history. 3) Weight. 4) Smoking. 5) Alcohol intake. 6) Physical inactivity. 7) Mental stress. 8) Diabetes.
Also, Swamiji says that exercise/aerobics/Yoga help combat Diabetes, but we should never over strain during these physical activities.
