HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE WIDESPREAD IN YOUNG ADULTS

NEARLY 1 IN 5 YOUNGER ADULTS HAS
HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE IN US, STUDY
http://articles.latimes.com - About one in five young adults may have high blood pressure in US, a new study suggests, but many of them appear unaware of it.  Such are the results of the latest attempt to clarify just how many far-from-elderly Americans are putting their long-term health at risk via hypertension.  Researchers analyzed blood pressure data from the National Add Health, and focused specifically on the information about adults age 24 to 32.  They found that of those people, 19 percent had high blood pressure - that is, they had a blood pressure reading of 140/90 millimeters of mercury or higher.  “And we found the results across every demographic: age, race, ethnicity, gender and level of obesity,” Dr. Eric Whitsel, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill said. “So it didn’t seem like it was concentrated within a particular group of individuals.”

The emphasized message is clear: 'it is not safe to assume that certain adults are too young to have hypertension'.  
Dr. Whitsel offered four ways to keep high blood pressure from getting too high:  1. Eat a balanced and healthy diet high in fruits and vegetables.  2. Reduce intake of sodium, which has a prominent effect on blood pressure levels, to less than 2,300 milligrams per day.  3. Limit daily alcohol consumption to two drinks or less for men and one drink or less for women.  4. Make sure you exercise regularly. Adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every week.



 
Almost one in five younger adults in the U.S. has high blood pressure, and the younger a person is when they develop high blood pressure, the earlier this damage can start, according to a new study.  High blood pressure is caused by a mix of social, behavioral and biological factors, and generally it reveals an unhealthy lifestyle.  It is important to do any discipline that allows the body to function in harmony, and the practice of Hatha yoga has many benefits.
