High blood pressure is a big health problem throughout the world and we explained that actually the number of deaths from high blood pressure per year is up to nine point four million worldwide die of complications of high blood pressure every year and that is if you want to put into perspective more than two times the population of the Gambia dying of this problem annually. Diet is very important in the Gambian culture ingesting not only spicy foods but very salty foods and we have very different forms of salty spices that we use in our foods and I think this plays a big role in the fact that high blood pressure is becoming a very big problem.Dr. Abubacarr Jah
