What is the cause of high blood pressure?
Blood pressure is determined by the interaction of many bodily systems and other variables some of which are: hormone levels and balances; state of contraction or relaxation of blood vessels; blood pressure regulatory centers in the brain ; kidney and heart function. Environmentally the amount of sodium in your diet; your weight; alcohol and cigarettes. Obviously if you cut down on salt intake, keep weight down and exercise regularly you can decrease blood pressure. However bodily functions are inherited and you may need medication to correct one or more of the above. Hope this over simplified response helps. Of course see your M.D. for further advice and treatment. Harvard Health Publications has a good booklet which goes into more detail. Good Luck. Hope this was helpful. Dr. Steve Ross READ MORE
