The Right Food Choices For Hypertension by diet234: 11:02am On Oct 22, 2014 |
Hypertension, also referred to as high blood pressure, is a condition in which the arteries have persistently elevated blood pressure. Every time the human heart beats, it pumps blood to the whole body through the arteries. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing up against the blood vessel walls. The higher the pressure the harder the heart has to pump, bringing tension upon the heart. The normal level for blood pressure is below 120/80, where 120 represents the systolic measurement (peak pressure in the arteries) and 80 represents the diastolic measurement (minimum pressure in the arteries). Blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is called prehypertension (to denote increased risk of hypertension), and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered hypertension. Modest changes in diet and lifestyle can significantly reduce the risk of heart diseases. For instance, Omega 3 fatty acids found in fish and fish oil, aids a healthy heart condition.
