Hypertension is the expression used to state high blood pressure.
Before we go any further and talk about some of the symptoms of high blood pressure and the western philosophy to healing, there is a different approach to treatment than that approved to in western medicine.
The western viewpoint subscribes to the belief that the body is a set of parts and pieces, sickness and illness a set of symptoms that can be eradicated with a drug.
As a consequence, the body as a holistic unit has no place in the modern-day practice of medicine.
Drugs have become the masters of treating symptoms and not the cause.
First, what is high blood pressure? Healthy blood pressure is considered to be [120/80 mmHg].

• The top number is your systolic pressure, the pressure created when your heart beats.
  It is considered high if it is over 140.
  
• The bottom number is your diastolic pressure, the pressure inside your blood vessels when the heart is at rest.
  It is high if it is consistently over 90.
  

One or both numbers may be too above normal.
Hypertension is known as the silent killer, most of the times you don't know you have it.
The following conditions although may be present:

• Chest Pain
• Confusion
• Ear and nose buzzing
• Irregular heartbeat
• Vision changes
• Tiredness

Of the many prescription medications available, none are not without mild to severe side effects.
Often more than one prescription medication is prescribed to lower high blood pressure.
Here is the list of the common medications and their side effects.

• Diuretics: Weakness, leg cramps, tiredness
• Beta-blockers: Insomnia, cold hands and feet, depression, slow heart beat, asthma.
  
• ACE inhibitors: Skin rashes, loss of taste, hacking cough, kidney damage.
  
• Angiotensin II receptor blockers: Dizziness.
  
• Calcium channel blockers: Palpitations, swollen ankles, constipation, headache, dizziness.
  

In nearly every society within the human race except that of the western world, the practice of medicine has subscribed to the basic belief that "The body has an almost marvelous capacity to heal itself.
" Give the body all the nutrients, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, at optimal levels that support all the body's vital functions.
The approach in giving the body complete, optimal nutrition enables the body to focus on the source and not just conceal or curb the symptoms of high blood pressure.
Not only does this approach target high blood pressure, but it gives a nutritional foundation for increased energy and defense against disease.
It has often been said that this body is the only one you will get, and you will have to make it last for a lifetime.
The only question is how strong and how vigorous will that life be.
Prescription drugs have proven they cannot provide us with that kind of vitality! Taking just the daily recommended amounts of vitamins is not nearly enough to initiate the body's healing processes.
Most of our bodies have been mineral deficient for years.
Most vitamins are hard for the body to absorb in the form in which they are taken.
Many vitamins or minerals may be lacking in our system and would be hard to pinpoint which ones.
Supplying all the vital nutrients at optimal levels in an ionic state ready for our cells to use, combined with the most powerful antioxidants in the world has an enormous effect on boosting the body's healing processes.
Scientifically blend all vital nutrients together and the results are remarkable.
Not only will this approach correct high blood pressure, it will improve immune function, lower inflammation, and protect your heart.
There is nothing better you can do than to give your body what it is lacking to heal itself.
