There is direct relation between alcohol and
blood pressure. Not a happy relationship. You pay for the alcohol and
buy blood pressure and again pay for treating the blood pressure! The
double loss game!
This is just one strong
reason. The disease of blood pressure is due to various other reasons.
The crush of the materialistic modern civilization is too much to bear
in the metropolitan cities. The modern modes of relaxation have capacity
to create further tension! Take for example, one of the entertainment
utility-Television!
If you view the News Channel, your mind is
likely to get more agitated. Instead of peace of mind, you get piece of
mind!
These problems are interrelated and it is difficult to
segregate the cause and effect, once you are trapped. For example, too
much of alcohol, is the cause of high blood pressure. It is also
responsible for weight increase.
Weight increase in itself is the
cause of blood pressure. If you take medication for weight loss, again
it has the potentialities for side effects. To treat the side effects,
your doctor will again give some more medicines. The vicious cycle goes
on. You will soon reach a stage, where you suffer form all sorts of
deficiencies and diseases.
Blood pressure is only the cover. It
has a solid back-up. Many serious, life-threatening diseases are waiting
in the side-wings to take over once you are a patient of high blood
pressure. They are heart diseases, heart attack, kidney failure, nervous
breakdown and many others.
Forget
medications for a while. I am not telling you that they are of no use.
But the strategy of the moment is to change your lifestyle. Change in
your food habits.
Think positively that you are capable of beating blood
pressure. Just give up junk food for ever. That is one of the
contributing factors for your constipation, which again is one of the
reasons for increase in your blood pressure.
If
you are taking more than 2 spoonfuls salt per day, it is time to cut it.
Give up processed foods and switch over to fruits and vegetables. Limit
the sweets. Have a regular schedule of exercises. Meditation, breathing
exercises, cycling, jogging, brisk walking, all these count a lot in
reducing your blood pressure.
Along with the changed habits,
develop a habit of thinking positively. Your supreme will power can cure
any type of blood pressure.
