While scientific community claims that the cause of high blood pressure is
unknown, I believe that high blood pressure is caused by three main factors: hardening
of the artery, thickening of the blood, and increased stress on the central nervous
system.
If one’s artery is hardened and blood is thick, the heart has to work harder, using
additional pressure to push blood through artery to provide the oxygen and nutrients
that the body needs for normal body functions.
Increased stress on the central nervous system can raise one’s blood pressure
instantly. If one experiences constant stress, that person is very likely to develop high
blood pressure.
Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood from the heart to
other parts of the body. Hardening of the arteries is also called arthrosclerosis. It is a
disorder in which arteries become narrowed because fat is deposited on the inside walls
of the arteries and becomes hardened by fibrous tissue and calcification. As this plaque
grows, it narrows the space in the artery tubes. This will lead to reduced supply of both
oxygen and blood to the vital organs, such as the heart, eyes, kidney, legs, gut, and the
brain. The plaque may eventually severely block the artery, causing a heart attack,
congestive heart failure, abnormal cardiac rhythms, or a stroke.
While the hardening of arteries, thickening of blood and increased stress on the
central nervous system causes increased blood pressure, high blood pressure can in turn
expedite the hardening of arteries, thickening of blood, and irritability of the central
nervous system. This forms a vicious cycle that can make one’s health and well-being go
downhill very rapidly and put one’s life at risk.
To ultimately “cure” high blood pressure, one needs to “tenderize” the artery
and make it more elastic, “thin” the blood and make blood flow more smoothly and
calm the central nervous system.
