One in every three Indians suffers from hypertension and heart ailments, which are responsible for over 30 percent deaths in the country. Experts warn that Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are acquiring epidemic proportions in India.

Risk Factors and Causes of Hypertension: High blood pressure, or hypertension, often goes unnoticed, with no significant symptoms. Untreated hypertension can increase your risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Therefore regular blood pressure checks – especially if you have a family history of hypertension or cardiovascular diseases – is a must. High-stress levels, age above 40, obesity and poor lifestyle habits, (eating, sleeping, lack of exercise, excessive alcohol/tobacco intake) are risk factors for developing hypertension.

High blood pressure puts extra strain on your blood vessels, heart, brain, kidneys and eyes.

Secondary Hypertension: When high blood pressure is caused by an underlying condition, it is called secondary hypertension. This tends to appear suddenly and cause higher blood pressure than primary hypertension.

As a General guide:

  • High blood pressure – 140/90 mmHg or higher
  • Ideal blood pressure – between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80mmHg
