			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the present age, life has become so stressful that there is hardly any person who is not suffering from any kind of <a title="different diseases" href="http://www.envixa.com/Health_Fitness/Diseases_and_Conditions/" target="_blank"><strong>disease</strong></a>. Tension and stress in life, unhealthy food habit, insufficient rest and sleep all leads different health problems. High blood pressure is such a problem where blood pressure rises more than the normal level 120/80 mm of Hg. Over twenty-five percent of Americans have hypertension i.e. high blood pressure. Many people even do not know that they have it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Symptoms of high blood pressure</strong></p>
<p>From the discussion of people who are suffering from high blood pressure, the following are the symptoms that people found. The main symptoms are severe body pain near the neck and lower part of head, chest pain, high sleeping tendency, weakness, nervousness, heavy bleeding from nose, inability to control emotion.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>High blood pressure causes</strong></p>
<p>Today, everyone has some kind of mental <a title="stress relief treatment" href="http://ayurvedagram.com/stressmanage.asp" target="_blank"><strong>stress</strong></a> and tension whether living in metro city or in a village area.  In most cases the causes of high blood pressure is not known.  Excitement and anxiety, unhealthy food habit (especially high calories food, excess intake of salt) all leads to high blood pressure. <strong>Sodium is a big culprit</strong> in high blood pressure. Sodium raises blood pressure because it causes you to retain water. This fluid retention is the main cause of raised blood pressure regarding salt. The main source of sodium is salt which is not a food, but a crystal like rock. The other major causes of high blood pressure is alcohol, smoking, excess intake of tea and coffee, pain killers and other strong medicines, genetic disorder, problem in thyroid and kidney, irregular heart beat and chest pain, and diabetes.</p>
<p>The <strong>worst things for the arteries</strong> are smoking, refined sugar, corn syrup, homogenized milk, chlorine and fluoride in water. These harden and narrow the arteries.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> <strong>High blood pressure natural remedies</strong></p>
<p>In countries where people do not consume lots of salt and protein, hypertension is rare. Many are not on medications (drugs) for it since they do not like the side effects. Many are taking 3 or 4 drugs for it. However, ayurvedic medicine has no side effect, or the side effect is least. Some people are able to cure it with a supplement food. Others are able to bring it under control with a change in diet and exercise.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> Get rid of eating the snacks, chips, cookies. Avoid eating junk and processed food as it contains lot of salt. Set some time aside to prepare your food yourself instead of buying ready-made dishes. This will make your salt intake plummet. The <strong>bad effects of excess sodium are minimized</strong> with lots of <strong>potassium</strong> and maximized with a low potassium intake. Foods high in potassium include potatoes (800 mg for medium size potato), avocados, raisins and figs. a banana has about 400 mg of potassium it is good to eat at least one a day on an empty stomach. If you&#8217;re working out a lot, be sure to keep hydrated with water. It will also help to flash out excess sodium and other toxins. The more water you drink the less water your body will hold onto, up to a point.</p>
<p> </p>
