Lots of triggers are there which causes hypertension, like lack of physical activity, stress, being overweight, etc. Gradually increase your level of physical activity, take balanced diet, make smarter food choices. Maintaining a healthy weight provides many health benefits. For 180 cm HT ideal weight for men should be 72-76 kg, losing as little as 5-10 pounds may help lower your blood pressure.
