10 High Blood Pressure Symptoms You Should NEVER Ignore!
I'm going to give you 10 high blood pressure symptoms you should never ignore. Hypertension or high blood pressure is a leading cause of heart attacks, heart failure, strokes, and it is the number two cause of kidney failure in the US. Worldwide. Over 1 billion people have hypertension, and in the United States, 46% of adults over the age of 20 have high blood pressure. Yet only half of these hypertensive patients have their blood pressure under control. In order to solve a problem, you must first recognize if you have one.

What Is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure refers to the force that the blood in your vessels exerts on the walls of your arteries. For your blood pressure measurement, you're probably familiar with the two numbers. The top number or systolic blood pressure and the bottom number, diastolic blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure refers to the pressure in your vessels when the heart is contracting or squeezing. The diastolic blood pressure refers to the pressure in your vessels when the heart is relaxed.
1. Headache
2. Blurry Vision
3. Fatigue
4. Chest Pain
5. Weakness
6. Nausea
7. Shortness of Breath
8. Back Pain
9. Nose Bleeds
10. Nothing
Be sure to follow up with your physician to learn your risk factors for hypertension and to be monitored. And if you have not done so already, please subscribe to my KZread channel and be sure to share this article with the people you care about.

I hope you spend the same amount of time explaining to your patients and that I had a doctor like you. I feel rushed and not listened to after my visits.
Great job Dr Frita short and to the point. Excellent!!!! Keep it up. Tell me more so I may extend my lifespan.
And to think how we’ve spent the last year worrying about what’s going on outside (Corona) when we should be worried about what’s going on inside. Gotta get out and walk 30 minimum every day, reduce the sodium, stop watching the news, talk to family/friends instead of social media. Elevated BP > heart attack or stroke is the real pandemic we’re living with before and after Corona. Thank you Dr. Frita.

The key thing is exercise I've found. Nothing brings down BP naturally then simply having an active lifestyle. I think people who are sedentary aren't going to get anywhere with a diet alone that isn't particularly significant like low carb. I mean, that's who low carb was originally meant for, people who won't or are unable to have active lifestyles.

I had been concerned about my blood pressure and when I visit my Dr nothing is detected, now as of last week I had to preform a test which includes a Blood Pressure Procedure fist and Pow here I am taking Blood Pressure Meds and All the 9 you list had started happening..... I'm so scared now because I'm soon to be 52 and OMG I am needed here on Earth, so now I'm about to do as I should to remain here at least another 40 yrs... Thank You Dr. Frita for your helpful video.

My 50 year old mama had HBP for as long as I could remember. she sadly passed because of this. No symptoms and her BP was over 200. Please take this seriously. She was okay one day and gone the next. This silent killer is no joke.

I'm 56 now, but about 9 years ago my ( BP was dangerous at 195/115) I stopped eating junk foods and fast foods, started walking everyday, no drugs needed, lost about 40-50 pounds...I also put ground flax seeds in my smoothies almost everyday, I feel great, Forks over Knives is a great first step in understanding stuff.. Also just on a side note, the Big Pharma industry tells the colleges what to teach our Doctors...drugs, drugs, drugs.....

Did my own research, found serrapeptase, nattokinase, & lumbrokinase was amazing. Beets , banana smoothies and walking did wonders and all the doc could say was “how”? All I said was “But God”!

Very well articulated & simple to understand...Thank you Frita
my parents both have high blood pressure, my father takes care of himself, exercises, eats healthy and takes his medications keeping his bp down, my mother on the other hand was healthy, ate healthy and went without a primary dr for years, dying from a heart attack 2 years ago from hypertension, i wish she would have made it to a dr and got back on her medication, she didnt take these things as serious as they truly are. i hope anyone who sees this takes my advice and take this seriously, it's not worth losing your life or your loved ones when all you need is to eat better, exercise and take your medications. the silent killer is a real thing, it took my mother. she was only 50, loved her grandchildren and her family and we miss her very much. god bless.

Dr thanks for all the valuable advice.
I usually get the headache (like having my head in a vice) and the pressure behind my eyes when my pressure is up. I have to keep my sodium intake at no more than 1k mg a day. I have an app on my phone to keep track of my intake. Generally, I've got to eat fruits and vegetables, most if the day.

Wow, those stats are staggering! Thank you for sharing this important information about hypertension. It's so crucial to be aware of the symptoms and to monitor our blood pressure regularly to prevent these serious health issues.
Thank You ! Doctor Frita for that important information !
I had know idea that I have high blood pressure, until I was tested by the Doctor. I have cut out salt and fat and my pressure together with a medication tablet has vastly improved me back to normal readings most days. Eating more fruits and nuts etc. Thank you for sharing your sound advice. Much appreciated:)

Leave the medicine alone because that stuff always has side effects, or and some type of after effects. But instead buy you a sauna, or use a sauna at a facility. Because saunas at the right temperature for the right amount of time causes weight loss, stress release, bone treatment, salt release, and yes lower blood pressure. In which everytime you use one within a matter of a couple of days or so it lowers BP. Meaning if you use one 2 times in a week that's 2 different times it got lowered(making the last time lower than before).

I'm recently diagnosed with hypertension and now take 3 pills daily . My first warning was severe headache while I slept, which woke me up two nights in a row..following advice I went straight to hospital where the nurse recorded my bp at 258/130 and it stayed there for hours until they found a pill that worked . Every morning I check my bp and it is around the 150/80 mark until the meds kick in . Since being diagnosed I have experienced back pain, breathlessness, headaches and blurry vision . I have frequent blood and urine tests .. I am far from out of the woods ,infact I am in the thick of them . When my bp was at 258/130 I actually had no symptoms but apparently I was as close as can get to meeting my maker and I am stunned I'm stunned and shocked to still be here.. So hanging in here and appreciate finding your videos .

Thank you for this video. #10 is the reason i am talking with my doctor as I have stage 1/2 hyper tension based on those numbers, but have 0 symptoms. So crazy as I workout 3x a week and eat fairly healthy. My worry is sometimes the meds they prescribe cause side effects - mainly sudden dizziness. But will make sure I go through it with my doctor and find the right meds to control this.

Thank you! We need doctors like you. I am afraid for my life the doctors aren’t doing enough for my bp. I was told it is hard to get African Americans bp under control. All this medicine and combinations and it’s hard! I say that is an uncaring lazy ass doctor. I have been struggling for years to find a good doctor that wants to do their job.
