Riboflavin or Vitamin B2 is also required for smooth functioning of every single cell present in the body, hence a deficiency of riboflavin or any B vitamins can lead to innumerable side effects. Vitamin B2 teams up with other B vitamins to become âB Vitamin Complexâ.
Blood pressure is a measurement of the force of blood against the arterial walls when the heart pumps. The pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and is expressed as two numbers.
A blood pressure reading has two numbers: a systolic blood pressure and a diastolic blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure is the maximum pressure the blood exerts on the vessels when the heart is beating. The diastolic blood pressure is the pressure the blood exerts on the vessels in between heartbeats. Hypertension, or high blood pressure, begins when the systolic blood pressure remains above 140 or when the diastolic blood pressure remains above 90.
