In this blog we will see what is hypertension, the difference between it with heart attacks and how to prevent heart disease.<\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is hypertension and heart attack?<\/h5>\n\n<p>Blood pushing too hard against the artery walls is known as hypertension, often known as high blood pressure. This can harm the arteries and raise the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other diseases.<\/p>\n\n<p>When the blood supply to the heart is interrupted, usually by a blood clot, a heart attack occurs. This could threaten your life and harm your heart muscle. Chest pain, shortness\u00a0of breath, and sweating are indications of a heart attack.<\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What exactly is defined as high blood pressure?<\/h5>\n\n<p>The recommended range for blood pressure is 110\/70 mmHg to 120\/80 mmHg. If\u00a0 a person having 140\/90 mmHg or greater on more than 3 occasions he\/she is regarded as having high blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes of hypertension<\/h5>\n\n<p>Here are some causes of hypertension<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Unhealthy eating habits<\/li>\n\n<li>Lack of exercise<\/li>\n\n<li>Large consumption of alcoholic beverages.<\/li>\n\n<li>Family history of hypertension<\/li>\n\n<li>Consumption of tobacco<\/li>\n\n<li><a title=\"Kidney disease\" href=\"https:\/\/erodediabetesfoundation.org\/tamil\/diabetic-kidney-disease\/\">Kidney disease<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Complications of hypertensive heart disease?<\/h5>\n\n<p>For many people, heart disease is the leading cause of death and disability.
