Hypertension or high blood pressure is a silent disease. It
is silent because sufferers experience little or no symptoms. The most notable
symptom experienced is headache. This disease affects a vast majority of any
population though its concentration has been found to be more among the urban
dwellers. It is important for people to check their blood pressure at least once
every six months.Apart from anti-hypertensive medications,
lifestyle modification is also very important. The DASH diet plan is
recommended. It includes reduction of sodium intake, reduction in alcohol
intake, moderate exercise (15 minutes of brisk walking everyday), and high fibre
intake.
