முக்கியம் — முடிவெடுக்கும் முன் படியுங்கள்
- High blood pressure (hypertension) is often called the silent killer because it usually has no symptoms
- Normal blood pressure is below 120/80 mmHg according to the American Heart Association
- Blood pressure fluctuates throughout the day — stress, caffeine, and activity can cause temporary spikes
- One elevated reading does not mean you have hypertension — consistent measurements over time are needed
- Systolic pressure (top number) measures force during heartbeats; diastolic (bottom number) measures force between beats
- Pulse pressure (systolic minus diastolic) above 60 mmHg may indicate stiff arteries
- Nearly half of adults worldwide have high blood pressure, and many are unaware of it
- Smoking and diabetes significantly amplify the cardiovascular risks of high blood pressure
இவற்றை புறக்கணித்தால் என்ன நடக்கும்?
- Uncontrolled high blood pressure damages blood vessels and leads to heart attack or stroke
- Chronic hypertension strains the heart, eventually causing heart failure
- High blood pressure damages kidney blood vessels, potentially leading to kidney failure
- Hypertension can cause vision loss by damaging blood vessels in the retina
- Combined with smoking or diabetes, high blood pressure dramatically increases cardiovascular mortality risk
புத்திசாலி குறிப்புகள்
- Measure your blood pressure at the same time daily for accurate tracking
- Reduce sodium intake to under 2,300 mg per day (ideally 1,500 mg for high-risk individuals)
- Regular aerobic exercise (30 minutes, 5 days a week) can lower systolic pressure by 5-8 mmHg
- Manage stress through meditation, deep breathing, or regular physical activity
- Limit alcohol to no more than one drink per day for women and two for men
- Maintain a healthy weight — losing even 5 kg can meaningfully reduce blood pressure
