ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood Circulation
The blood circulation is responsible for supplying the body with oxygen. Blood pressure is the pressure
exerted on the arteries. The systolic blood pressure value (higher pressure or top value) represents the
blood pressure produced by contraction of the heart muscle. The diastolic blood pressure value (lower
pressure or lower value) represents the blood pressure produced by relaxation of the heart muscle.
Health and blood pressure
The incidence of hypertension increases with age. In addition, a lack of exercise, excess body fat and high
levels of cholesterol (LDL), which sticks to the inside in blood vessels, reduces elasticity of these vessels.
Hypertensioin accelerates arterial sclerosis which can lead to very serious conditions such as stroke and
myocardial infarction. For these reasons it is very important to know whether the blood pressure is within a
healthy range. Blood pressure fluctuates from minute to minute, throughout the day. Therefore it is
essential to take regular measurements to help you identify an average blood pressure.
