How can hypertension be prevented?
Ludmilka [50]
Hypertension can be prevented by all of the above.

Hypertension is basically high blood pressure. Although it is a serious thing that can increase strokes, heart diseases, and kidney diseases, you may hear people say, 'calm down, your blood pressure is going up'. Hypertension can definitely be prevented by a balanced diet (can keep your blood pressure under control), regular exercise (doctors say to for 30 minutes each week if one has high blood pressure), and having a healthy weight (weight is crucial with hypertension).
