    People with high blood pressure are better not to smoke and drink. Because nicotine and some other products during the burning of cigarettes will produce too much free radicals in the body, it will damage cardiovascular health, which is not conducive to the prevention of diseases such as arteriosclerosis; excessive drinking will cause alcohol to stimulate the stomach and liver, and will Promote faster blood circulation and increase the burden on the heart and blood vessels, especially hard liquor such as liquor is not suitable for patients with hypertension.
