Explanation:

Hypertension( also called high blood pressure) is a medical condition in which the blood pressure is constantly elevated( 130/80 or 140/90 mmHg and above). Hypertension may occur due to:

- life style ( smoking)

-genetic factor

- other disease conditions such as kidney disease and obesity can predispose one to hypertension.

Management of hypertensive patients requires both their cooperation and that of the health care providers. While the health care providers monitors the systolic and diastolic blood pressure of the patients, the patient are advised to make some changes in their lifestyle which should include dietary changes too. The client should avoid dietstgat will lead to increased blood pressure. Licorice root is a herbaceous plant which is believed to treat many diseases in Asia but it's toxic effects can lead to increased blood pressure and even edema.
