Introduction to Hypertension and DASH Diet

Hypertension is one of those diseases that is being underestimated and ignored by a lot of people. Many of those who are afflicted with this disease choose not to undergo treatment because of lack of signs and symptoms. However, what they are not aware of is that hypertension is actually a “traitor disease.” A hypertensive patient will not experience any symptom until a more severe disease arises.

Hypertension, more commonly known as high blood pressure, comprises one of the leading causes of death in the world, aside from being the most common cardiovascular disease. It has been associated with different cardiovascular disorders, such as myocardial infarction, also known as heart attack, cerebrovascular accident or stroke, and coronary artery disease. Despite all the treatments that have been introduced over time, there are still a lot of people who are suffering from hypertension. This could be attributed to two main things: first, lack of knowledge of the patient regarding his condition, and second, non-compliance of an aware patient.
