Symptoms of high blood pressure .. Beware of smelling fake odors!

High blood pressure is a common disease in many countries, but its prevalence is rising and symptoms are often rare to detect the disease, however some odors have been reported more commonly among people who have been confirmed to have high blood pressure.

High blood pressure is a major cause of stroke and is known to alter all of the senses, including taste and smell.

But there is evidence that olfactory changes can occur before a stroke occurs.

According to the results of a study published in the journal Laryngoscope, olfactory changes are more common in individuals with high blood pressure than in those without the condition, and researchers believe that these changes may occur in the form of phantom odor perception.

Phantom odor perception occurs when an individual experiences brief bouts of smelling something that is not there.

This usually occurs if an individual has sustained damage to the temporal lobe of the brain or has experienced some form of head trauma.

The British newspaper “Express” says: “People with this condition have a defect in nerve signals that allows the irrational sense of smell to reach the central nervous system. The cause of the condition is still unknown, but it has often been seen along with other underlying conditions.

The study suggests that people with diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure may be more likely to develop a phantom odor, and stroke was linked to a 76% higher likelihood of being aware of a phantom odor.

The results showed that adults with diagnosed, but controlled, high cholesterol reported placebo odors more frequently than those without high cholesterol.

The researchers also found that adults with diagnosed but controlled high blood pressure reported placebo odors more frequently than those without high blood pressure.

Because high blood pressure is closely related to lifestyle factors, making the right adjustments can lower your reading significantly.

Doctors recommend eating healthy foods that contribute to maintaining blood pressure, and staying away from salty foods because salt causes the body to retain additional amounts of water, which increases pressure on the walls of blood vessels, with the need to exercise regularly, and Mayo Clinic warns that if you stop exercising Exercising can raise blood pressure again.
