High blood pressure affects 25% of the adult population worldwide. Left unmanaged, it can have devastating consequences. A Simple Guide to Blood Pressure describes how to control your blood pressure and help protect yourself against heart disease.
WHAT HAPPENS NORMALLY?
In order to understand what's going on when you have high blood pressure, it is important to first understand what happens in your body under normal circumstances.
THE BASICS
High blood pressure occurs when your blood exerts a persistent and abnormally high pressure, or force, on your circulatory system.
WHY ME?
If you, or a member of your family, have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure, you're not alone. High blood pressure affects nearly 1 billion people worldwide.
SIMPLE SCIENCE
The control of blood pressure within the body is very complex. Blood pressure is managed by your heart, your nervous system, the blood vessels of your circulatory system and the kidneys, and is influenced by many different factors.
MANAGING HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
If you have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure then it is only natural that you will worry how it will affect your daily life. Millions of people with hypertension continue to lead normal lives. There’s no reason why you can't take control of the condition and continue to lead a full and active life.
