Blood pressure can be seen by taking two sizes and are usually indicated by numbers such as 120/80 mmHg. Figures 120 shows the pressure in the arteries when the heart contracts. Called systolic pressure. Figures 80 shows the pressure when the heart is relaxing. Called diastolic pressure. The best attitude to measure blood pressure is in a state of sitting or lying down.

Causes of High Blood Disease or Hypertension.

The cause of hypertension is often referred to as one of the degenerative disease. Generally, people with hypertension do not know him before his blood pressure checked. This disease is also known to affect anyone of various age groups and socio-economic groups. However, more common in the elderly which is one risk factor.

Many found the retirees who've never worked longer face extreme environmental changes. Faced with conditions at home that no activity and is positioned as being no longer able to perform some job stress raises.


There is an increasing body fluid volume and blood pressure which will be followed by increased spending excess salt substance that back in normal circumstances. In essential hypertension, this condition is disturbed. Diet and activity in an unbalanced also have contributed a great cause of hypertension. Smoking, drinking alcoholic beverages and lack of exercise can also affect blood pressure elevation.


Overweight let alone obese patients will experience higher blood pressure compared with those with normal weight. Increased blood pressure is found throughout the day, including at night. Moreover, added, blood pressure during the night as high as in the daytime in those who have excess weight to overweight. Supposedly, at night, decreased blood pressure, blood bilatekanan remain high, this condition can cause interference with the heart.


Hypertension can be classified into two broad categories, namely primary and secondary. Primary Hypertension Hypertension means that the cause is not known clearly. The second class is the cause of hypertension semunder be said to have been uncertain, for example, kidneys are not functioning, use of oral contraceptives, and disruption of hormonal balance which is a factor regulating blood pressure.

Combating High Blood Diseases

Diet Prevent High Blood Diseases

One of the main causes of hypertension is asteroklerosis. This condition is caused by excess fat consumption. Therefore, to prevent the onset of hypertension is to reduce the consumption of excess fat in addition to the provision of medicines when necessary. Restriction of fat intake should be started early before hypertension appeared, especially in people who have a history of hypertension and on the descent towards the elderly. We recommend starting at the age of 40 years in women to be more cautious in consuming fats because of approaching menopause.


The main principle in making a healthy diet is a balanced nutrition, which consume a balanced variety of foods, namely:


* Sources of carbohydrates: whole grains.
