The more blood your heart pumps and the smaller your veins, the higher your blood pressure. A blood pressure reading is given in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). It has two numbers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The top number (systolic tension). The first, or upper, number estimates the tension in your courses when your heartbeats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Base number (diastolic tension). The second, or lower, number estimates the pressure in your arteries between beats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can have hypertension for quite a long time with no manifestations. Uncontrolled hypertension builds your danger of genuine medical conditions, including cardiovascular failure and stroke. Luckily, hypertension can be handily identified. Furthermore, when you realize you have hypertension, you can work with your primary care physician to control it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us look into the composition of energy drinks for a better understanding of what ingredients have what effect on high blood pressure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Composition_of_Energy_Drink\"><\/span>Common Composition of Energy Drink<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caffeine-1.jpg\" alt=\"caffeine\" class=\"wp-image-17443\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caffeine-1.jpg.webp\" alt=\"caffeine\" class=\"wp-image-17443 lazyload\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-6\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>High blood pressure patients should have a moderate amount of caffeine.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Caffeine\"><\/span>Caffeine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The maximum caffeine intake limit for a healthy adult is <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/nutrition-and-healthy-eating\/in-depth\/caffeine\/art-20045678#:~:text=Up%20to%20400%20milligrams%20(mg,widely%2C%20especially%20among%20energy%20drinks.\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/nutrition-and-healthy-eating\/in-depth\/caffeine\/art-20045678#:~:text=Up%20to%20400%20milligrams%20(mg,widely%2C%20especially%20among%20energy%20drinks.\" target=\"_blank\">400mg<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caffeine is one of the key ingredients found in all energy drinks.
