Hi!
High blood pressure can develop over many years with no noticeable symptoms. That is why regular blood pressure checks are so very important. However, when high blood pressure is severe, certain symptoms appear:
* Nose bleeds
* Racing or irregular heartbeats
* Headaches
* Dizziness
* Confusion
* Nausea
* Loss of vision
But you can overcome the situation by just making some lifestyle changes.Have your blood pressure checked regularly.Keep the stress level down or learn to manage stress through meditation, relaxation, exercise etc.Stop Smoking if so… Smoking is directly linked with the development of coronary artery disease.Avoid excessive salt intake. Eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, and food high in fiber and less fat. Reduce stress on and off the job.Limit alcohol intake if so…to no more than 24 ounces of beer or one glass of wine per day.Exercise regularly and keep your weight within normal limits.
The incidence of high blood pressure is lower in vegetarians, so eat plenty of oat bran, pectin fruits (such as bananas, apples and melons), vegetables like celery broccoli, cabbage, green leafy vegetables, peas, prunes, beets, carrots and spinach. Coldwater fish and lean white meats are also recommended.Use olive and flaxseed oil.Garlic is very effective in lowering high blood pressure. It decreases cholesterol and triglyceride levels in blood. Garlic may be eaten fresh, in cooked foods, or taken in capsule form. Onion can also be as effective as garlic. Take these in form of dietary and nutritional supplements. they will work!

a salt restricted diet is what i would suggest.
hypertension is dangerous. It puts stress on your heart and can cause strokes. I would check the local heath department. sometimes they have doctors that come and can check you out for like 5 bucks.
