Young adults who have slight high blood pressure are at a risk of heart problems in their later life Symptoms of high blood pressure In a recent study published in Journal of the American College of Cardiology , it is observed that young adults who has marginally above normal blood pressure are at a greater risk of having heart problems in their later stages of life  About 2,500 men and women between the age 18 to 30 years participated in the study. Scientists observed the participants for 25 years. The participants undertook health checkup for once in three years for the duration which included blood pressure measurement and .heart imaging tests at the end of the study. Few people under the age of 30, when the study began, had marginally above normal blood pressure (120/80 to 139/89). Even though this range is not categorised as high blood pressure but an intermediate stage termed as prehypertension. However the scientists found that those people with abov...

BloodPressure Blood pressure has gotten an awful blow. Bloodpressure is important for flow. With no blood pressure, blood cannot shift from the heart to the distant parts of body and back. The heart provides the pumping force — every contraction of the heart's major pumping compartment, the left ventricle, , creates a surge of pressure that goes through every artery in the body. Stress-free and elastic arteries offer a strong resistance to each pounding of blood. Blood Pressure On the other hand, arteries that are stressed, thin, or stiff offer more resistance. This is a symptom of higher blood pressure, and it pushes the heart labor harder. The heart muscle can grow weaker over time due to this extra work which may endanger other organs, such as kidneys and eyes. And the persistent beating of blood against the walls of arteries makes them hard and narrow, and may pose risk for a heart attack or stroke. The majority of people with high blood pressure don'...
