pressure or hypertension.<\/p>\nHaving high blood pressure increases your chance for heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, or kidney disease. Normal blood pressure is around 120\/80 mmHg. Blood pressure of 140\/90 mmHg or higher is considered high blood pressure or hypertension.<\/p>\n
The kidneys are the first cause of high blood pressure, but are also the easiest to treat. Excess fluids can cause high blood press (kidney weakness). Metaphorically, kidney weakness equals fear. Other causes may come from stress, a diet rich in animal fats, and toxicity related to use of tobacco, alcohol, coffee and tea.<\/p>\n
Modern medicine treats high blood pressure using diuretics that stress the kidneys and may damage them. Beta blockers lower the heart rate. ACE inhibitors are blood vessel constrictors.\u00a0hypertension relax the blood vessels. All these treatments supply only symptomatic relief and include a life-time dependence on medications.<\/p>\n
From a natural perspective, using the word pressure brings up a whole new category of feeling pressured to perform at work, pressured in relationships, or your own high expectations of yourself or others. For men, in general, high blood pressure is related to anger; for women, it is more about stress. For men and women, it could be either or both. Most people don\u2019t know how to manage stress nor are they interested \u201chow to.\u201d And as a result, the drug companies have provided a \u201cquick fix\u201d which, truly, any of us can become dependent upon for a lifetime.<\/p>\n
I believe most high blood pressure issues are from financial stress. The way we value ourselves and others has to do with heart health. In most cases of high blood pressure, the cause is a great mystery according to the modern health perspective.<\/p>\n
Of course, a healthy diet and exercise is the natural way to start helping lower high blood pressure. Take time to address your stresses in life and find ways to minimize them.<\/p>\n
