Condition #8: Hypertension
Hypertension is a technical medical term for having a high blood pressure. It is a fairly common condition that affects millions of people across the globe. It can be the result of a wide variety of causes, and the most common causes are lifestyles choices, stress, and heredity.
Eating healthily and getting enough exercise can both be very effective at reducing blood pressure, depending on the cause. Hypertension is something that should be addressed because it can lead to serious health implications both in the short term and in the long term. It can even lead to heart attacks and strokes, making it a condition that should never be taken lightly.
