Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a common and serious medical condition where the force of blood against the walls of the arteries is consistently too high. This condition puts strain on the heart and blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other health problems. At Dr. Sawant’s Diabetes Care Centre, we prioritize the management and prevention of hypertension through comprehensive care and lifestyle interventions.
Lifestyle Factors: Poor diet high in salt and saturated fats, lack of physical activity, and excessive alcohol consumption.
