Medically known as hypertension, high blood pressure is a disease or condition which is directly caused by a spasm - or narrowing - of small blood vessels throughout the body. This narrowing makes the heart work harder to push the blood vessels; hence, the pressure of the blood to get through the blood vessels must rise in proportion to the work increase. If high blood pressure persists and if the increased work is great enough, the result would be a gradual enlargement of the heart.
These will help prevent heart disease:
1. Weight control
2. Proper diet.
3. Control of undue emotional stress or stain.
4. Reduced salt consumption.
5. Judicious and intelligent use of both proper and individually callibrated exercise, and the amount of rest and frequency of rest periods needed, plus the correction of body defects.
