Hypertension is all about your arteries. Usually, the vessels that carry blood from your heart to the rest of your body have a smooth inner lining. They’re strong and versatile to push blood through your body. High blood pressure changes anatomy. The extra force of the blood can rupture your arteries from inside. If the pressure doesn’t go down, it can tear the lining, so it’s not smooth anymore. That’s where bad cholesterol LDL gets caught and deposit. Blood can’t move well around these clogs and blocked arteries. These deposits can also make the walls stiff, so it’s harder to move the blood. It increases the workload of your circulatory system while decreasing its efficiency. Connect with us :
