🌡️ Silent Danger: How High Blood Pressure Affects Young Adults

 By Dr. Shruthi Thennati | Kayakalpa Clinic, Vadodara

When you think of high blood pressure (BP), you may imagine older adults — but the truth is, hypertension is silently rising among India’s youth. Work stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, and screen-heavy lifestyles are fueling this hidden epidemic.

Why You Should Care

High blood pressure is called the “silent killer” because it often shows no symptoms until serious damage has already been done. Even in your 20s or 30s, unchecked BP can increase the risk of:

  • Stroke
  • Heart disease
  • Vision problems
  • Kidney damage

Signs You Might Miss

While many feel “normal,” subtle clues can include:

  • Frequent headaches
  • Dizziness or blurred vision
  • Palpitations
  • Fatigue or shortness of breath

Why Young Adults Are at Risk

  • High salt and processed food intake
  • Sedentary jobs and lack of physical activity
  • Excessive caffeine and alcohol
  • Poor sleep and high stress
  • Obesity and hormonal disorders (like PCOS, thyroid imbalance, insulin resistance)

🌱 Lifestyle Medicine Can Help

The good news? Hypertension is preventable and reversible in many cases. At Kayakalpa Clinic, Vadodara, we use a root-cause approach combining:
 ✅ Nutrition guidance tailored to your body
 ✅ Stress and sleep management
 ✅ Personalized exercise plans
 ✅ Advanced health tracking with InBody 970
 ✅ When required, safe and effective medication

High BP is no longer just your parents’ problem. If you’re under 40 and think you’re too young to worry, think again. Regular check-ups with a general physician in Vadodara can catch risks early and protect your long-term health.

At Kayakalpa Clinic (Old Padra Road, Vadodara), Dr. Shruthi Thennati helps patients manage diabetes, hypertension, thyroid issues, and lifestyle-related conditions with science-backed care.

But where should you start? Let’s begin with a common question:   Does exercise really help with weight loss?  Absolutely. Whether it’s a 20-minute swim, a brisk 30-minute walk, or a session on the treadmill, you could burn around 250–350 calories. But here’s a fun fact — your body naturally burns 1300–1800 calories a day just by keeping you alive. This is called your resting metabolic rate.
