Can Hypertension cause headaches?
I've been diagnosed with mild hypertension (no meds required). Also, been experiencing persistent headaches recently (and, I'm NOT prone to migraines). My GP reckons it's the BP. But I've read somewhere that this link is just a myth. Should I take her advice, or do I need to get a second opinion.
There is very dangerous perception in Indian subcontinnet regarding food and diseases and lifestyles.
It is mainly through Ayurveda,Homiopathy and Yunani system which deals with Health rather illnes.

Hypertension is a common disorder characterized by high blood pressure.
Modifying your diet is an excellent way to prevent the development of hypertension. By reducing the amount of fat in your diet, Some occurrences of hypertension cannot be avoided and in these cases, the disorder may require the use of medication for the rest of their lives
Best of luck !
