Overview
High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a condition that often develops quietly over time. Many people do not notice any symptoms until it starts affecting their overall health. When blood pressure stays high for a long period, it can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney problems, and other complications. Along with regular medical care and hypertension medications, many people also look for supportive ways to improve their daily routine and overall wellbeing.
