High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a common condition that can lead to all kinds of more serious conditions and complications. If the force of your blood hitting your artery walls continues for too long, you’ll start to suffer from heart disease and other cardiovascular problems that can become quite serious. High blood pressure is difficult to treat and deal with for both medical professionals and their patients because you can live for years with hypertension without any symptoms. Still, the damage to your arteries is real and can be detected.
There’s a reason why doctors take your blood pressure every time you visit them. Living with and monitoring your blood pressure at all times can be difficult, but if your doctor tells you your blood pressure is too high, there are a few things you can do to avoid serious heart and circulation problems later.

How to Lower Your High Blood Pressure
Your doctor may have already told you this, but the best way to lower high blood pressure is to reduce or eliminate certain bad habits. Smoking, for instance, constricts the blood vessels and leads to hypertension.
But the best and longest-lasting method of keeping your blood pressure under control is to lose weight and work to keep the weight off.
I know. It sounds terrible, but there are options out there that can help you lose weight without dieting or exercising. The more you weigh, the more blood needs to be moved constantly throughout your body to supply all your tissues with oxygen and other nutrients. Essentially, the more of you there is, the harder the heart has to work to properly circulate your body. The harder the heart works, the harder it pumps, the greater the pressure. Losing weight, avoiding certain foods that contain too much sodium, and exercise are the primary recommendations doctors make to most people suffering from hypertension.
