One Diseased Kidney Can Cause High Blood Pressure Throughout the Entire Body
Most people think the kidneys only filter waste, but they also play a major role in regulating blood pressure.
Rarely Known Fact:
If blood flow to one kidney becomes restricted, the kidney may mistakenly believe the body is dehydrated and release hormones that increase blood pressure. This can lead to severe hypertension even when the heart itself is healthy.
