I’ll be the first to tell you I’m a very relaxed person, but I’ve recently been told by doctors that I have high blood pressure! At first I was offended, but wondered how could this be?

We’re glad to hear you’re living without much stress, but we can’t say the same about the news! Hypertension is caused by many factors besides stress, although it’s still one way that people with high blood pressure can exacerbate their conditions. Many times it can be a result of an unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, smoking, genetics, or just old age in and of itself. Be sure to talk to your doctor about what lifestyle changes you can make to better manage your condition.
