What is the reason for high aldosterone?

As the human body ages, it is more prone to some common diseases. Especially if men do not pay attention to their diet and lifestyle habits, it will cause some problems to the kidneys. If the kidneys have high aldosterone, it is easy to cause high blood pressure, hypokalemia and other diseases. However, some people do not know enough about high aldosterone, and don’t know what causes high aldosterone? Let us take a detailed look at the following content to help everyone find the answer.

First, primary aldosteronism, which we also call primary aldosteronism, is caused by some diseases in our adrenal cortex, which causes our body to produce aldosterone exceeding the normal value, resulting in water and sodium retention in our body, and increased blood flow.

Second, the cause of primary aldosteronism may be the presence of an aldosterone tumor in our adrenal glands. Another cause of idiopathic aldosteronism may be certain cancers or ectopic tumors that secrete aldosterone in our adrenal glands.

Third, glucocorticoids can suppress hypersteroidemia. For the treatment of this disease, we carry out targeted treatment according to our own conditions. We can perform some targeted surgeries and combine them with some Chinese medicine for conditioning treatment.

Fourth, we all know that our human body needs some trace elements to maintain the functions of various organs in our body, such as potassium, sodium, calcium and so on. Nowadays, hypertension seems to be becoming more and more common in our lives, whether young or old. Usually, people with hypertension look no different from normal people, but its existence poses a great threat to our life and health. Hypertension combined with potassium deficiency may be a symptom of primary aldosteronism.

The above is an introduction to the causes of high aldosterone levels. For primary aldosteronism, we need to pay more attention to rest, relax our mood, do more physical exercise, strengthen our physical fitness, supplement with more nutritious foods, and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
