Alarmingly, one out of three individuals suffers from high blood pressure in USA and nearly the same number can be seen elsewhere across the world. This means that people who suffer become susceptible to kidney failure, strokes, heart attacks and even blindness.

The cause of this phenomenon, known in the health-care community as the seasonality of hypertension, is unknown, but a few theories have been proposed. One is that the sympathetic nervous system, which prepares the body to deal with stressful or emergency situations, is ramped up by cold weather which, in conjunction with decreased sodium excretion due to diminished sweating causes the BP to rise.

The corollary hypothesis is that during warm and hot seasons larger amounts of sodium are excreted through sweating. The increased sodium excretion is accompanied by loss of fluid volume in the blood vessels, thereby reducing blood pressure.
