<p>The present study considered the very complex relationship between patterns of usage of social media and self-esteem in adolescents. With the rapid expansion of digital platforms becoming an integral part of everyday life, the relationship between the nature of this interaction and the self-perception of the youth is worth understanding. Combining quantitative questionnaires with qualitative interviews, the current research attempted to observe these subtle relationships closely. For this reason, the study aims to contribute useful insights to academic discourse as well as practical interventions that promote healthy digital habits among youth by way of a very salient concern: scrutiny of frequency, duration, and contents of engagement with social media and their impact on self-esteem.</p>

<p>Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a prevalent and dangerous medical condition that places excessive strain on the heart and blood vessels, leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and kidney failure. The pathophysiology of hypertension involves several key factors such as vasoconstriction, increased cardiac output, and impaired kidney function, all of which contribute to the elevation of blood pressure.Herbal remedies have been used for centuries in managing various health conditions, including hypertension. Numerous herbs have shown potential in helping regulate blood pressure naturally, offering an alternative or complementary treatment option to conventional pharmacological interventions. Some well-known herbs with antihypertensive effects include Garlic, Hibiscus, Ashwagandha, and Olive leaf extract. These herbs possess properties such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and vasodilatory effects, which help improve circulation, reduce stress hormones, and enhance overall cardiovascular health, thus contributing to blood pressure regulation.This abstract aims to explore the pathophysiology of hypertension and the potential role of herbal remedies in its management. While conventional antihypertensive medications are the primary treatment, emerging research suggests that combining herbal therapies with these medications may improve efficacy and reduce side effects. However, it is crucial to use herbal remedies under medical supervision to ensure safety and effectiveness. Ongoing research in the field of herbal medicine for hypertension holds promise for developing safer, more natural treatment options. Further studies are needed to better understand the long-term effects, safety profiles, and synergistic potential of herbal remedies in the management of hypertension.</p>
