根據最新統計數據顯示，我國高血壓患者數量已達到3億之多。在《中國高血壓防治指南》最新版本，即2024年修訂版中強調了這一問題，並明確指出我國高血壓患病人數正逐年上升，特別是中青年群體的比例顯著增加。

Many people neglect blood pressure management, resulting in low levels of high blood pressure awareness, treatment, and control rates.

In terms of the types of hypertension, it is mainly divided into two forms, primary and secondary. Secondary hypertension is usually caused by a specific cause or disease, such as kidney disease, hyperthyroidism, etc.

Essential hypertension is the most common one, its onset is closely related to genetics and lifestyle habits, once the disease often requires lifelong antihypertensive drugs to control, which is also the type of hypertension that most people suffer from at present.

Therefore, it is highly recommended that you have a blood pressure monitor at home and check your blood pressure regularly for prevention, early detection and timely treatment. At the same time, it is important to focus on a healthy lifestyle in daily life and avoid those factors that may trigger high blood pressure.

Some people may ask, it is often heard that there is a "peak blood pressure" when you wake up in the morning, so is the increasing number of people suffering from high blood pressure related to the habit of waking up early?

Regarding the peak blood pressure period, according to the 6-hour blood pressure change of the human body, people will have two moments of blood pressure rise in a day: one is from 0 to 0 o'clock in the morning, which is called the morning peak blood pressure; The other occurs at 0 to 0 p.m. and is called evening hypertension.

Comparing the two time periods, although there will be fluctuations in blood pressure in the evening, it is not as pronounced as the peak in the morning. Therefore, especially for people with high blood pressure, it is necessary to be alert to the risk of high blood pressure in the morning and pay attention to avoid the following behaviors!

1、

For people with high blood pressure, seemingly harmless behaviors may actually be risky. For example, getting up and dressing quickly when you wake up may increase the risk of orthostatic hypotension. Orthostatic hypotension refers to poor blood circulation in the blood vessels caused by sudden standing, which may lead to dizziness and even increased blood pressure, thus triggering cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Therefore, it is recommended that people with high blood pressure should wake up slowly after being fully awake, which can help the body smoothly transition from sleep to active state, which is conducive to maintaining a stable blood pressure level.

2、

For those with stable blood pressure, moderate morning exercise is okay if they have their own exercise habits. However, for people with high blood pressure, such activities should be avoided. Exercise makes your heart beat faster and your blood circulates faster, and strenuous exercise is likely to cause your blood pressure to fluctuate dramatically.

In particular, exercising when blood pressure is at its peak can be detrimental to the condition and may even induce acute cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction. Therefore, people with high blood pressure must be extra careful in this matter.
