Hypertension is one of the world's biggest risk factors for cardiovascular disease and is therefore involved in the development of many deaths. The incidence of hypertension has increased dramatically in recent years and affects a growing number of adults aged between 20 and 60. With early diagnosis, high blood pressure can be lowered by changing one's lifestyle, thus avoiding the need for lifelong medication. High blood pressure is generally asymptomatic. Since high blood pressure does not cause any specific symptoms, it usually goes undetected. Serious consequences only become apparent after many years. As a result, many people in this age group are unaware that they have hypertension, and the number of strokes, heart diseases and heart failures is rising. By the time symptoms appear, secondary diseases are already present. The now well-researched associated medications and non-medicinal measures, such as dietary changes, help to protect against secondary diseases in chronic hypertension.
