Treatment of hypertension with folk remedies - an addition to drug therapy

Hypertension or hypertension isa very common disease in the modern world. The reasons for this are a great many - these are stressful situations, and bad habits, and poor nutrition. Especially often, hypertension causes increased intake of sodium chloride, that is, ordinary table salt. Salt not only in itself contributes to increased blood pressure, while retaining excess fluid in the body, but sodium ions in large quantities disrupt the fine mechanisms of self-regulation of blood pressure in the body. The increase in blood pressure, which is characterized by hypertension, even to a small extent is manifested by unpleasant symptoms, such as headache, fatigue, the inability to focus on anything (the syndrome of diffuse attention), which leads to a decrease in the capacity for work of a person. If the blood pressure increase figures are high enough, a real threat to the life of the patient is created, as the probability of occurrence of such a formidable complication as a stroke (or "brainstroke") increases sharply.The norm of a person's blood pressure is on average 120/80 mm.rt.tolba, increasing for a long time these figures above 140/90 can already mean the first stage of hypertension, and a sharp increase above 160/110 creates a real threat of stroke.
