Why is it important to control my blood pressure?

Left uncontrolled, hypertension may place an incredible amount of stress on your heart and arteries, both of which become forced to work harder to keep blood flowing in a healthy manner throughout the body. Over time, this stress may result in health problems including enlargement of the heart, loss of elasticity of the arteries, heart disease, stroke and even death. Making some simple lifestyle changes now may help you stay healthy in the future.
