High blood pressure 

High blood pressure, also known

as hypertension, is where the force

of blood against the artery walls is

too strong. 1 in 25 teenagers have

high blood pressure. High blood

pressure increases your risk for heart

disease, stroke and NAFLD. The first

step for treatment is a healthy diet,

reducing hidden salt (restaurant and

processed foods), and exercise.
