High blood pressure occurs due to a number of reasons. It is characterized by higher than normal force of blood against arterial walls and this can cause serious, long term damage.
High blood pressure is a silent killer and you never know about its existence until you suffer a stroke or a life threatening attack. Allopathic medicines only work as long as you consume them.
