Listen to

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a condition in which the force exerted by blood against arterial walls remains excessive. It often develops without symptoms, but it raises the probability of heart disease, stroke, and kidney issues. Causes such as stress, an unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and hereditary traits play a role in its development.


Untreated hypertension necessitates regular monitoring. Serious consequences can result from hypertension. It can be managed with lifestyle modifications, which include maintaining a nutritious diet, staying physically active, and reducing salt intake. Medication may be required in some situations. In this episode of the Hypertension Podcast, we will discuss its causes, symptoms, risk factors, and treatment approaches.
