High blood pressure is one of the most common health conditions in the United States. More than 50 million people in this country have high blood pressure. This amounts to almost one in four adults. Nearly a third (30 percent) of those with high blood pressure don't know they have it. Another 36 percent don't have their blood pressure under control. If left untreated, high blood pressure can damage the kidneys, or lead to a stroke, heart attack, or heart failure.
