Collection: PRESSURE

Blood pressure is the pressure the heart exerts to allow blood to circulate around the body. The pressure can rise or fall based on the contractions of the heart and several other factors, such as the state of the arterial valves and the health of the blood vessels.

Hypertension is defined as an increase in the pressure that the blood exerts on the walls of the arteries; there are a number of causes that can lead to increased blood pressure, such as stress, anxiety , age , sedentary lifestyle and diet .

Hypotension, on the other hand, is commonly known as " low blood pressure ". In this case the force exerted by the flow of blood on the vessel walls decreases and circulation slows down. As a result, blood flow is too slow to deliver enough oxygen and nutrients to vital organs such as the brain, heart and kidneys; this condition does not allow the organs to function normally and they can be fatigued.

This is why it is advisable to take care of your cardiovascular system, even in a natural way, making sure to keep the heart and blood vessels in good condition.
