Stress
Stress typically leads to a temporary increase in blood pressure, but after enough rest and recuperation, blood pressure usually returns to normal. A constant increase in blood pressure is, however, not healthy because the arteries will get overworked and there will be a tendency for clots to form. Another important thing is how you deal with stress; there are different ways people deal with stress; some people eat more, some people smoke cigarettes, and some people take alcohol. All these are not ideal for dealing with stress, as they will only increase blood pressure. Plan your lifestyle to include sufficient rest, as that is the best way to deal with stress.[2]
