Natural Remedies For Hypertension Patients
Blood pressure is a measurement of the force of blood flowing against the walls of the arteries. This pressure is constantly changing during the course of the heart related cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the systolic, while the lowest is the diastolic. Both pressure readings are necessary to enable a health practitioner to evaluate the status of a patient's blood pressure. Many factors such as physical activity, time of day etc can influence one's blood pressure, for example, it is typically low in the morning and increases from the afternoon to the evening, and it is lower in the summer and higher in the winter.
High blood pressure, otherwise known as hypertension means high pressure (strain) in the arteries. Arteries are tubes that carry blood from the pumping heart to all the tissues and organs of the body. Veins carry used blood from the organs and tissues back to the heart for recycling. If arteries become narrowed by one or more of several reasons, then the pressure of blood flow within the tubes that carry blood increases. The heart is therefore made to work harder to ensure that fresh and recycled blood is pumped to every organ of the body.
According to medical science the word "hypertension" or "arterial hypertension", by itself, normally refers to increased pressure of blood passing through the entire arteries of the whole body. In order words the normal pumping pressure of blood through the body is in a way "hyped". The opposite of it is called "normotensive".
The American Heart Association estimates high blood pressure affects approximately one in three adults in the United States - 73 million people. High blood pressure is also estimated to affect about two million American teens and children, and the Journal of the American Medical Association reports that many are under-diagnosed. Hypertension is clearly a major public health problem.
Damage to the heart and blood vessels may occur if the condition remains unchecked, increasing the risk for stroke (brain damage), heart attack, kidney or heart (cardiac) failure, hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis or arteriosclerosis), and eye damage. Hypertension is often called the "silent killer," because it often shows no symptoms until it reaches a life-threatening stage.
High blood pressure does not necessarily mean excessive emotional tension, although emotional tension and stress can temporarily increase it. Hypertension can be classified as either essential (primary) or secondary. Essential or primary hypertension means that no medical cause can be found to explain the raised blood pressure. It is common. About 90-95% of hypertension is essential hypertension. Secondary hypertension indicates that the high blood pressure is a result of (i.e., secondary to) another condition, such as kidney disease or tumors
Primary hypertension has no symptoms until complications develop. Symptoms and signs are not specific and arise from complications in some target organs. Dizziness, flushed facial appearance, headaches, fatigue, nose bleeding and nervousness might be some symptoms that might trigger a suspicion.
Medication applied by most physicians only work to reduce the level of pressure, without dealing with the cause of the problem, and is often prolonged. More like giving a patient with a broken bone, painkillers to relieve his suffering without setting the bones to heal. The best approach really is to have the patient start a program of mild exercising which will break sweat, proper dieting and stress control. Generally speaking while the patient monitors his own blood pressure on a daily basis, he should reinforce those activities which lead to drops in in it and refrain from indulgences which aggravate it.

Natural Hypertension Cures - 5 Reasons Why Natural is Better Than Drugs
Hypertension in your body is a perfectly natural response to unnatural stimuli. If you were a blood vessel, it's exactly how you would react. The fact is that high blood pressure is called "the silent killer" because it is a disease that doesn't make you feel any worse until you just, finally, die from its effects. Consider high blood pressure natural treatment - fight disease with health! There are natural cures for high blood pressure. Here are 5 reasons you might want to consider natural hypertension treatment.
1. With some drugs, you can decide whether your symptoms are a heart attack or just side effects. Some "healing" drugs have published side effects such as rapid heart rate, palpitations, heartburn or irregular heart beat.
2. You'll honestly have the "Not tonight, honey, I've got a headache" syndrome. A headache or dizziness may be considered mild side effects to some, but I would not pay for nor invite these ailments to my house (neither would I want the diminished sex drive and/or inability to be intimate).
3. You won't need to catch a cold to feel lousy all year. Other medicines cause a stuffy nose, loss of taste, severe dryness of the mouth, fever, and a dry hacking, chronic cough. Nothing says "stay away from me" much like a hacking, lung-displacing all day cough. Wouldn't any of these symptoms so far motivate you to try a high blood pressure natural treatment?
4. "I'm melting, I'm melting..." You'll feel like you're melting and fading away with the side effects of feeling weak or faint, dizziness, weak muscles, depression and extreme fatigue. Of course, a lot of that fatigue could be caused by the insomnia side effect of some pills - or the recurring nightmares.
5. High blood pressure medicine side effect will make you feel swell! You may have swelling around the eyes, swollen ankles (which you can study as you suffer from the side effect of constipation), and swollen and sore joints.
If you are currently taking any medication, don't stop without consulting with your physician. Natural cures for high blood pressure may present a much better and healthier lifestyle, but the transition from meds to natural is best carried out in partnership with a health professional.
