Blood pressure and blood sugar.

Blood pressure and blood sugar interact.

Patients with high blood pressure are prone to high blood sugar, which may be related to metabolic disorders in patients with high blood pressure. Long-term high blood pressure can lead to systemic arteriosclerosis, including hardening of pancreatic arteries, which affects the secretion of insulin by the pancreas and indirectly leads to high blood sugar. On the other hand, long-term high blood sugar may also lead to vascular damage and arteriosclerosis, thus increasing the risk of hypertension. If blood sugar control is unstable, it may also cause damage to blood vessels throughout the body, including arterial damage, which may further lead to increased blood pressure.

Therefore, there may be a certain relationship between the occurrence and development of hypertension and diabetes. People with hypertension and diabetes need to take measures such as low-salt, low-sugar diet and appropriate exercise to control blood pressure and blood sugar.
