Smoking and drinking throughout the year increase the risk of high blood pressure, but not 100 percent.

Do you smoke and drink for years to get high blood pressure?

Smoking causes vasoconstriction and increases the burden on the heart, which can lead to higher blood pressure, and nicotine and other chemicals in tobacco can lead to hardening of the arteries, impairing endothelial function and increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. In addition, moderate alcohol consumption may be beneficial for cardiovascular health, but excessive alcohol consumption can lead to higher blood pressure. However, it should be noted that everyone reacts differently to tobacco and alcohol, and some people may be more susceptible to it and develop hypertension, but it is not excluded that some people do not develop hypertension.
