The medical companies are also aware that the medications for hypertension causes serious side effects.
Some of the major side effects are dizziness, headache, fatigue, depression, throbbing of the heart, lack of energy, lack of concentration, impotency, frigidity etc.
Sometimes these medications give rise to a unique feeling of "false security".
Suppose you are wearing a helmet which has an unnoticeable crack. Then you take more risk because by trusting the helmet, because if something hits you in the head the helmet wont be able to protect you.
Hypertension medications neither cure hypertension nor protect you from sudden fatal cardiovascular events - such as heart attack, stroke, embolism, kidney failure and other conditions that are directly caused by high blood pressure. It often doesn't even work to normalize the blood pressure itself.
About 50% of the people die from these diseases. People who are on medications the mortality is even slightly higher and so they are put on medications for the rest of their life, thinking they'll be safe but then the safety-device doesn't work and fatal accident happens.
The main reason the medications doesn't work is because of stress and wrong diet.
It has never been so easy to live a good life. , we've safer than ever. But never before have had worries and stress plagued us so much.
People in that state have tension in their mind and tension in their body. They cannot sleep and they cannot relax. This builds up emotional tension, which again causes hypertension.

Your mind needs a few minutes focused break every day. And watching TV doesn't cut it. It actually makes it worse. You absolutely do need to give your body and mind a few minutes break from all tension and all worries every single day.
People in the western world are dying due to hypertension. But a focussed break regularly could have saved many life's.
