How Is Your Health Affected By Isolated Systolic High Blood Pressure?

By Christian Goodman

In today's world, blood pressure is one of the most common and killer disease. Having been a victim myself, I have since tried to find as much as I could now about this problem and other related health issues.

If you have blood pressure around--0/90, you will be considered as suffering from high blood pressure. Among them, the higher number is known as systolic pressure. A person is called to be pre-hypertensive if he or she has blood pressure between the ranges of 120/80 to-9/89.

Hypertension is very common for people above the age of 65. But today it is seen in people who have just turned 50. That is why keeping a tab on these numbers is very important as it increases along with age.

The reason that hypertension is to be avoided because our heart gets strained as blood pressure increases from normal level and which ultimately leads to heart attack.

Other vital organs like kidney are equally affected by the increase in blood pressure.

Let's recap about systolic pressure. Systolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries when blood is being pumped in every beat. Diastolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries when heart is resting. It is the lower number of your blood pressure reading and it usually decreases with age. Whether a person has hypertension or not is judged by systolic pressure and any increase in it is considered as isolated systolic high blood pressure. Then again, to actually know your blood pressure, it is imperative to have both the reading.

If you want to know whether you have high blood pressure or not, please consult a medical practitioner.

You may lead an apparent healthy life, but you will never know what this disease will prove to be fatal. The outwards symptoms are so few that it is very east to ignore that you have a problem till it becomes too late. That is why high blood pressure is known as a 'silent disease".

Those that become aware hesitate to go to doctors because they fear that will be put on medication. They fear the side effects that rear head many times due to medication. If you are hesitant about this, talk to your physician beforehand.

But there is no guarantee that you will not be put into medication just because you have concerns against it. The main complain against Western doctors is that they recommend or prescribe medicines in spite of patient's concern regarding it.

Then again, the doctors are also curtailed by the fact that their patients lead a very harmful life. When people fail to give up their habit of smoking, drinking, not exercising enough or eating junk food, the doctors cannot help but prescribe medication as the last resort.

That is why I came up with my own all natural High Blood Pressure Program. It has been proven effective against isolated Systolic or otherwise high blood pressure. It just does not keep your pressure under control; it also removes the reasons for high blood pressure. All you have to do is provide a little time from your daily life to it.
