Ayurveda’s Take on High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure is a result of high Ama and Pitta in the blood. Both are kinds of mucus; Pitta is liquid and hot, Ama is simply toxic. Pitta we need in balance, Ama we don’t need or want at all.
Improper diet and stressful lifestyle aggravates the Tridoshas (predominantly by Vata) with the formation of Ama.This vitiates into the blood and makes it thick and heavy in nature due to Ama and Kapha.
After years of high pitta, vata vitiation and Ama getting deposited into the bloodstream, the blood volume itself increases which reduces the elasticity of the vessel and formation of cholesterol. Sometimes this toxic mucus accumulates in the form of plaque in the arteries, and because of this the circulation becomes blocked and the pressure on the heart to pump blood through these narrow vessels around the body with the time.
It works in the same way that when a pipe gets blocked it begins to swell, nothing can pass through it easily and pressure increases. When there are deposits in the arteries and the blood volume has increased, it leads to High Blood Pressure.
