News India Live, Digital Desk: Sleep and Hypertension: Nowadays, in every other house, you will find some person whose morning starts with a blood pressure tablet with tea. High blood pressure or hypertension has become a ‘silent’ disease that is secretly hollowing out our body from inside. We often blame it only to tension or age, but the truth is that its real roots are hidden in our daily small habits.
We all make some such mistakes every day, which directly increase our blood pressure. Let’s look at those 4 common habits which are seen as modest, but are very dangerous.
1. Call the morning breakfast as ‘no’
In the run -of -the -mill life, we give the first sacrifice for our breakfast. “Time is not,” “getting late for the office,” … these excuses are all of us. But do you know that when you leave breakfast in the morning, you feel fast hungry till noon? At that time, instead of eating anything healthy, you eat a samosa, chips or whatever you get unhealthy. This habit not only increases your weight, but also makes blood pressure in the body unbalanced.
2. Friendship with packets of packets
Today, in our kitchen, more than fresh things have been taken by packet foods (processed foods). Chips, instant noodles, biscuits, sauces – all of these have become part of our life. They have a lot of taste, but at the same time “hidden salt” ie sodium is also more than necessary. This sodium goes into our body and absorbs water, which increases the amount of blood. Now think, when there is more bleeding in a thin vein, then the pressure on them will increase. This is high blood pressure.
3. Stick to the chair and couch
Who is our best friend today? Office chair and home sofa! By sitting in one place from morning to evening, our body gets jammed. When we do not do any physical activity, our heart has to work hard to pump blood. This additional pressure on the heart increases blood pressure. It is a simple matter, the less you walk, the more your blood pressure will increase.
4. Ignoring sleep
“Just watch another episode …” or “I run a little more phone,” … in this affair, our sleep is often not complete. Doctors recommend 7-8 hours of sleep, but we work in 5-6 hours. When your sleep is not complete, hormones with stress in the body increase. Your body is unable to relax and remains in a ‘alert’ mode all the time, causing blood pressure to increase naturally.
No rocket science is needed to control high blood pressure. Just recognize these small but dangerous habits and take a pledge to change them today. After all, there is nothing precious from health.
