☠ Which risk factor generates the most deaths?

The graph shows the frequency with which risk factors cause death. In the first place, high blood pressure stands out, which unfortunately is not surprising. It is followed by smoking, environmental pollution, prediabetes/diabetes, high cholesterol, and obesity.

High blood pressure is defined as values ​​above 140/90 mmHg on average and persistently, although the ideal pressure is less than 120/80 mmHg, and that is the therapeutic goal.

Hypertension, also known as the silent killer, causes damage to the brain, heart, kidneys, and retina (among others) over decades without showing any symptoms. Therefore, monitoring blood pressure throughout life is essential, as it does not give any signs and its very early correction is necessary to protect the organs and gain years and quality of life. Complications resulting from hypertension include heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, and vision damage 👁.

Early detection should be carried out in health check-ups from childhood and throughout life, thus eventually establishing different measures of protection, prevention, and treatment.

📚 Here I have described in detail what the initial non-pharmacological measures are, fundamental to preventing and treating early stages: https://www.drcaroli.com/-medidas-para-bajar-la-presion-sin-medicamentos. Along with this, choosing an appropriate sphygmomanometer or automatic blood pressure monitor is essential for each person to take control of their pressure: https://www.drcaroli.com/con-que-tipo-de-baumanometrotensiometro-debo-medirme-la-presion-en-mi-casa.. I have also described here how to avoid common errors in measurements: https://www.drcaroli.com/-hipertension-evita-errores-comunes-como-debo-controlarme-la-presion-arterial-en-casa

If non-pharmacological measures are not possible, there are effective pharmacological measures 💊, but they must be selected properly to achieve the greatest efficacy and protection.

💡 It is important to consult your cardiologist for a detailed clinical evaluation 🩺 and to identify the best strategies for each individual patient.
