well its not only sodium its potassium too that can elevate ur BP, about sugar there is a correlation between the blood glucose level and BP and that is inversly proportional infact meaning that whenever blood glucose level is high BP goes down and vice versa
However, too much sugar cause obesity and there is a direct relation between over weight and increased blood pressure so the thing I would advise u to do since u have high BP is to lose weight
yes it can..many people can not handle third shift jobs because of this..
many of the causes of high blood pressure are due to lifestyle factors, diet, work and home stress, lack of physical fitness etc. But there are also things like kidney dysfunction which can go on undetected for a long time. Hypertension (high blood pressure) is called 'the silent killer' because it often ges undetected while causing alot of damage to your vital organs.
If you think or know you have high blood pressure you should definitely get it checked out by a doctor.
