First, The Causes
There are many causes of high blood pressure. The blood pressure in normal individuals rises about one point each year until the seventh decade and then it usually levels off. Early in life, women usually have slightly lower blood pressure than men, but after the fourth decade this is reversed. A wide range of normal pressures exists, but the average pressure for a young adult is considered to be 120/80 mm Hg.
Overeating, which usually results in obesity, contributes to high blood pressure, as does eating the wrong diet, particularly a diet that is high in salt. High blood pressure would be less common if the liver and kidneys were not burdened with an overabundance of irritating foods. Some forms of high blood pressure are inherited, in fact in some groups of people this may be the cause in as many as seventy or eighty percent of the cases.
Symptoms
Patients with high blood pressure frequently complain of headaches, particularly in the morning, difficulty breathing, dizziness, flushed complexion, and blurred vision. They may first be seen with symptoms of heart failure or stroke. In fact, one of the most frequent causes of stroke (cerebrovascular accident) or heart attack (myocardial infarction) is hypertension.
Diet
White flour products, cane sugar products, meat, tea, coffee, pepper, vinegar, mustard, pickles, alcohol, and all other stimulating foods and drinks are very harmful and should be omitted from the diet. Tobacco should also be eliminated, as it is one of the main causes of heart attacks. A fruit diet for a few days is one of the best things you can take. The use a simple nourishing diet, get plenty of outdoor exercise, and practice deep breathing.
