Established risk factors for essential hypertension include increased alcohol intake (more than 2 drinks per day), increased salt intake in diet (more than 2 gm per day), obesity, and a sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise.  All these risk factor are reversible.
Established risk factors for essential [[hypertension]] include African American ethnicity, [[dyslipidemia]], [[diabetes mellitus]], increased [[alcohol]] intake, increased [[salt]] intake in diet, [[obesity]], and a sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise.

==Other Less Established Risk Factors for Hypertension==
* [[Vitamin D Deficiency]]
* Family history of high blood pressure
* Genetic diseases
* High [[fructose]](sugar)corn syrup
* [[Metabolic syndrome]], a condition in which body develops insulin resistance due to obesity and has high blood pressure, sugar,cholesterol and increased waist circumference.
*Black race: Although more common among blacks, it is not clear if environmental factors (Increased salt intake, high cholesterol diet, lower socioeconomic status, stress) or race itself is the cause.
*Family history where parents are hypertensive
*Smoking is generally not considered an independent risk factor for hypertension, but is a risk factor for [[coronary heart disease]].
*High cholesterol diet
*[[Anxiety disorders]]
*[[Type A personality]]. People who are more commmonly impatient and have hostile attitudes may be at risk.
