Why does hypertension have negative effects on health and homeostasis

Biology
1 answer:
maksim [4K]3 years ago
4 0

Hypertension  (high blood pressure) has negative effects on health because people with this condition have a higher risk for heart disease and other medical problems than people with normal blood pressure.

If left untreated , hypertension can lead to :

1. heart attack

2. Stroke

3. enlarged heart

4. Kidney damage.

 Once the kidneys are damaged, homeostasis in the body is severely impaired because the body no longer has the ability to clear waste  products, which when they accumulate tend to poison  the body leading  to such conditions as uremia.
