Summary: 1. Headaches: Headaches are among the most common symptoms of high blood pressure. Although headaches can occur for a variety of reasons, it is a good idea to monitor your blood pressure if you have persistent headaches.
2. Fatigue: Fatigue and weakness also can occur for a variety of reasons, but can be an indicator of high blood pressure. Although fatigue can be attributed to lifestyle choice, Hypertension does cause tiredness. This is because the vital heart organ is overworked.
3. Nosebleeds: If you have frequent nosebleeds that are hard to stop, hypertension may be the culprit. Another possible cause for nosebleeds is irritation of the nasal lining. Make sure it’s not seasonal allergies that make you blow your nose constantly.
4. Chest Pain: Chest pain should always be taken seriously, regardless of whether you suspect high blood pressure or not. Mild, intermittent chest pain can be one of the symptoms of high blood pressure or a heart attack. Sometimes people aren’t even aware they have suffered one, chalking up the discomfort to indigestion.
5. Dizziness And Shortness of Breath: High blood pressure often manifests itself as nervousness and shortness of breath. Middle aged women may misinterpret these symptoms to be menopausal or stress symptoms. If these symptoms persist high blood pressure could definitely be the culprit.

299.91 -> you to know what really causes Hypertension
in the first place.
302.72 -> Here are some of the causes.
305.91 -> Being overweight or obese: This is one of
the biggest risk factors for hypertension,
310.92 -> especially in younger people.
312.44 -> That's because excess body fat puts a strain
on your heart, which can cause your blood
315.83 -> pressure to rise.
316.83 -> The good news is that losing weight, even
just a little bit, can lower your blood pressure.
322.06 -> Eating a diet high in sodium, calories, saturated
fat, and sugar: According to the AHA, this
328.021 -> type of diet can increase your risk of developing
high blood pressure.
330.97 -> The good news is that adjusting your diet
is often helpful in lowering your blood pressure.
334.82 -> So regardless of whether or not you're at
risk for high blood pressure, it's a good
337.84 -> idea to keep an eye on your salt and sugar
intake and avoid processed foods whenever
341.4 -> possible.
343.85 -> Having too much alcohol regularly: Drinking
in excess is bad for you for a number of reasons,
349.18 -> but you can add risk of high blood pressure
to the mix.
351.86 -> Regular, heavy use of alcohol can cause your
blood pressure to increase leading to other
355.39 -> health complications.
358.64 -> Not getting enough exercise: Regularly getting
up and moving is good for you and your overall
363.9 -> health, and it can also help keep your blood
pressure in check.
366.28 -> But not exercising often or at all increases
your risk.
369.52 -> Make it a point to get the recommended 150
minutes per week of moderate exercise or 75
374.1 -> minutes per week of vigorous exercise.
376.06 -> It will do your blood pressure, and overall
health, some serious good.
381.16 -> Living with chronic stress: You may have heard
that stress can raise your blood pressure
385.42 -> temporarily, which it can when you’re frazzled,
but chronic stress is really something to
389.77 -> worry about when it comes to your blood pressure.
391.63 -> A lot of times when you have stress, that
elevates your blood pressure for that moment
395.76 -> in time.
396.76 -> But if you stress all the time, that’s building
up issues in your blood vessels.
401.27 -> A family history of high blood pressure: Unfortunately,
if high blood pressure runs in your family,
406.41 -> you’re at an increased risk of developing
it, too.
409.24 -> Obviously, you can’t help your genetics,
but environmental issues within your family,
412.83 -> like poor dietary choices and lack of exercise,
could contribute to this as well.
418.65 -> Your age: Getting older is great, but unfortunately
the older you are, the higher your risk of
424.18 -> developing high blood pressure.
425.69 -> As you get older, your blood vessels become
less elastic, which can increase your blood
429.33 -> pressure.
430.33 -> Clearly, you can’t help this factor, but
you can take other blood pressure-friendly
433.3 -> steps to help modify your risk.
436.5 -> Your race: African American men and women
are more likely to develop high blood pressure
441.87 -> than people of any other race in the U.S.
443.91 -> They develop high blood pressure at a younger
age and develop more severe complications
447.85 -> sooner in life.
450.41 -> Gender: Men are more likely to have high blood
pressure than women until the age of 45, but
456.031 -> women are more likely to have high blood pressure
from 65 and up.
459.83 -> Unfortunately this is a factor that is beyond
your control.

hypertension?
