HYPERTENSION

Hypertension is when blood pressure is too high. Blood pressure is written as two numbers. The first (systolic) number represents the pressure in blood vessels when the heart contracts or beats. The second (diastolic) number represents the pressure in the vessels when the heart rests between beats.

Usually hypertension is defined as blood pressure above 140/90, and is considered severe if the pressure is above 180/120

High blood pressure often has no symptoms. Over time, if untreated, it can cause health conditions, such as heart disease and stroke

Causes:

Sedentary Life style

Obesity 

Smoking, Alcohol

Large intake of salt

Anger, tension, stress

Cholesterol

High Hemoglobin

Low Hemoglobin

Systemic problems like kidney, heart problems, diabetes, hypothyroid, gastric problem etc

Certain medication: such as birth control pills, cold remedies, decongestants, over-the-counter pain relievers

Pump

4,300 gallons of blood and over 100,000 contractions in 24 hours. The body has 5 quarts. Entire cycle takes less than a minute. It goes through 60,000 miles of vessels. If we take our blood, when you gain weight, you need more mileage. In between contractions, there is a fraction of rest between each. Add them up, you will the amount of rest the heart gets. When you have high blood pressure, the heart needs to pump faster, and that is less rest for the heart. The myocardium gets tired, and when you stimulate muscles they grow, you have a large heart with weak muscles.

List of home remedies for high blood pressure:

Ordinary High BP:

Manna drink: 

1. cucumber, carrot, raddish, coriander and pudina leaves, add some water and lemon juice. Take this 2 times daily for 1 week every month.

Watermelon seeds contain cucurbocitrin which widen blood capillaries, it also helps improve kidney function which lowers blood pressure level.

6. Cucumber: lowers blood pressure: Believe it or not, cucumbers also have blood pressure lowering potential - in fact, several studies have linked the fruit to a reduction in hypertension. This is mainly due to their high potassium content.

A whole cucumber contains about 13% of the recommended daily intake of potassium. Potassium is one of the main nutrients known to regulate blood pressure because it reduces water retention caused by high sodium levels.

NOTE:

Its not necessary that you should have all the ingredients, it depends upon your local availability.

To make more convenient we can also make manna drink by mixing the above ingredients. And we have learned before that to have full recovery causes has to be identify and rooted out.
