Diabetes and Hypertension can make a deadly combination, in terms of death risks. They are easily linked to one another, as diabetes can cause blood vessel constriction which leads to blood pressure.
Today it is seen that one in three people who have diabetes have blood pressure and 70% of people ages 65 and older are more subjective to the risk of a heart attack that can lead to death.
However,under an experimental analysis, it has been said that people who take intensive hypertension therapy have the reduced risk of a heart attack by 9%, since it helps in reducing blood pressure levels.
