Like rusted water pipes, hard arteries walls tend to get cracks inside them when blood rushes through them with such a high-pressure force. Cholesterol and other slime in the blood gather in these cracked scar tissues inside the arteries. Making them even narrower and harder. At this point, a deadly cycle begins . . . Since less blood can flow through your narrowed arteries, the blood pressure increases. To deliver enough blood through these narrow arteries, your heart begins to pump with increased force, blowing your blood pressure up through the roof. Now your nervous system senses that your blood pressure is too high. Normally, your body would deal with this problem by simply widening the arteries. It’s very easy if they’re soft and flexible. But, remember, your arteries have hardened and will not widen as easily.
