The following are two excerpts from the booklet:

Complications
If left untreated for several years, hypertension can cause serious damage to health. High blood pressure makes your heart work harder to pump blood throughout your body. It also damages arteries (blood vessels carrying oxygen and nutrients to organs). This has very serious effects on body functions, particularly on eyes and kidneys. Hypertensive people incur more risks of suffering from angina or heart attacks and strokes. Risks increase as blood pressure rises.
