The first stage starts at 140/90 and the second stage at 150/100. In both cases, it causes significant damage to the person. The shorter is your lifetime in case of higher blood pressures. The number of heart attacks does not depend on how old a person is or how many strokes young adults have. Blood pressure can affect several parts of the human body.
Arteries
Whenever there are arterial problems two things can be experienced by a person. One is the blood pressure which later can lead to bleeding. If it is significant, it becomes fatal. The other is claudicating or peripheral arterial disease which involves pain in the limbs preferably on the legs.
Brain
Stroke occurs when the artery that breaks goes to the brain. In this instance, it can forever change your life or at the most end your life.
Heart
Blood pressure can damage the heart or makes your heart work harder. If it isn't controlled then heart failure and heart attacks are the possible outcomes.
Kidneys
Kidneys also work harder in this condition same as the heart. Kidney diseases can cause problems. Get tested for both blood pressure and kidney to avoid serious things happen.
Stomach
Nausea and vomiting are just few symptoms for this condition. It could damage the stomach lining and the esophagus if medical attention is not properly given.
Vision
Blurred vision is another symptom of high blood pressure. It can result in permanent vision loss if not checked.
To open up several avenues of improving your health, complementary care is needed. Medical and natural remedies could be given. But if you preferred natural remedies consider herbs, aromatherapy and imaging.
Herbs can reduce blood pressure. Omega 3 fatty acids and garlic are good complements. Omega 3 is found in flax seeds, cold water fish and borage oil. For aromatherapy, chamomile and lavender essential oils could provide some relief. This can also reduce stress. For imaging, just choose one passage in the bible and imagine yourself there.
These are just combination approaches but you still need to consult your doctor. Remember that your life is worth it.
