Eat your vegetables people.
@hesss333 That is another one of the scary things about HBP. Doctors say there are ‘no’ signs or symptoms. So one may be having having HBP and not know it for months and years unless…. one gets it checked. Reason why it is called the silent killer. I guess when it gets too high, it will show some symptom.
We are planning on a video that encompasses all the facets of this disease and not just “effects of high blood pressure. Thank you for your feedback.
We live in a fkd world how can we not have hypertension?.. I don’t know one person who isn’t depressed..
Lose weight, be w/in 10lbs of your ideal weight, get on statins and ace inhibitors, eat lots of fish, no red meats, lots of fruit, vegetables, NO SALT, no canned foods , salt intake at less than 1500mg/day. exercise, walk, run, swim , be active, if you choose not to do this,,,, start planning your will, trust and shop for a good funeral home, cremation or coffin service, heart disease moves quickly and kills w./out symptoms
I am 33 and have had a head ache for 5 days. I can’t get a good deep breathe sometimes and my left eye hurts. I keep thinking it is sinuses since my nose has been stuffy. My cheeks are flushed and I am irritable. Took my BP and it is 133/92. My norm has always been 120/80. I have no health insurance right now and am a bit nervous…
I have been taking MENS 1 A DAY vitamins in addition to my bp meds for 2 weeks now and my bp is 138/97. Still high but its great considering it is normally in the 180/110 range on prescription meds. I dont eat right or exercise so once start excercising and diet my bp should get much better, maybe normal.
Advantage is The Film & Animation make it easy and clear to learn and to understand. This short film include the animations to show how exactly hypertension cause problems to the body.
The only disadvantage is it show the pictures and animations to explain the rationales of how if affect the body, it also should provide a little more information as signs and symptoms patient need to come to doctors.
I’ve like had a lot of sewer food lately, mean fastfood, and sodas. My blood pressure was taken at the dentists and it was up up and away, like 165. I’m worried, but I have torouble eating better since its hard to get to the preparation of the meals for me.
49 YO Female. BP=180/100…. Chest pains, blurred vision when exercising minimally (walking) & massive headache. Curious as to what was happening to me. Doc put me on Ramipril 5 mgs., Triamterene-HCTZ 37.5-25 MGMYL & Levothyroxine 25 MCG. Now I seem to be peeing all the time and am now not as puffy!~ Still slight headache & heart races when walking but do feel better. Is this heart failure? Thought I’d get an objective/straight answer if asked in an objective forum….
Just turned 21 and have ridiculously high blood pressure (150/100) for someone my age. The other day I had a few drinks and my kidneys started spasming, which was freaky as hell, so I decided to do something about it. I’ve heard that there’s a link with sodium, and when I think about it, all I eat are things with sodium. I’ve decided to try the DASH diet for a couple of weeks to see how it goes. Does anyone have personal experience with the DASH diet?
@ebateru Hi I read somewhere that there is a link between low calcium intake, and sensitivity to sodium (natrium). Personally I think sodium requirements should be adjusted for summer/winter and high exercise/low exercise..

I would have thought hardening and blocking of the arteries is a cause of high blood pressure, not a symptom of it.
my blood pressure reading was 135/95. That is high for my age 41. I have been slightly dizzy lately. I don’t have insurance and no doctor. But this happened at work. So maybe the stress of work caused this. Normally I am 121/30. This is usually my reading.
FatherFlanigan,
I thought I was reading my own story when I read your comment. Thank you for posting it.
I need to change too.

@UTubeJabZz Im in the boat at 25, blood pressure starting from when i was 24.
Would love to talk to all of you more about this, msg me back
@Desolator1 where did you get 138/82 being handicapped person?
please explain?
Thats normal blood pressure.
scary stuff
@Blazestalker100 those can be symptoms of HTN (hypertension). Normal BP is 120/60…but most medical professionals recognize high blood pressure parameters as anything greater than 130/80….it’s wise to keep a good eye on this. Get your BP checked and keep written records of it to share with your medical provider.
@DarrylJonesHealth yeah so i wondered if that works do you have to use pills to get the cayenne into your blood stream or is that just so you dont have to chug a bunch of cayenne? also will snorting it work. it burns the nose but it is an effective way of clearing a stuffed up nose or so i’ve heard. one of my friends tried it. please answer all my questions and thank you.
@Desolator1 same here except im only 17. so um did you evertake supplements like creatine or protein supplements that have glutamic acid in them. because i have and I think that’s what caused it. cus i looked it up and it says creatine can cause it and so can glutamic acid if it turns into glutamate.
for me it feels like the heart arent beating at the same levels, changes from 100 to 160 (ca) all the time, like up n down, up n down. and some beats, hits hard to the chest to. Feeling dizzy at times, got a bit blurry view, whats this?
had it for a while, use to go away after some days or week, but comes back.
i dont think i suffer Cronic HBP, not often above 180.
There is a very effective fix for high blood pressure (without taking expensive and ongoing meds), and that is using cayenne pepper. Create your own using vege capsules (you can get these online everywhere), place the cayenne pepper inside and take a couple per day.
Got blood presshure here too 138/82 and I am 20 years old. Heart and kidneys are in perfect condition,docotrs can’t find ANYTHING wrong that could cause it. Sucks that I have to live with pill for the rest of my life unless something comes up. 138/82 is pretty much a handicaped person whose physical capabilities are reduced to 20-25% Very BIG difference. Oh and no smoking,drinking, no extra weight or anything although stressful life overall. Relax ppl and eat well and stay fit or else…
