Hypertension is a major public health issue in Indonesia due to its high prevalence and the fact that it is a risk factor for heart disease, kidney failure, and stroke. Age, gender, family history, alcohol consumption, smoking, iodine consumption, physical activity, and obesity are all risk factors for hypertension. Adults with undiagnosed hypertension can face an increased risk of morbidity and mortality if it is left untreated. Early detection and knowledge about the risk factors for hypertension in adults are important. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the risk factors for hypertension in adults in Mapanget Village, North Minahasa. The sample size was 384 respondents, and the sample was obtained using convenience sampling. Data were collected using an online questionnaire and analyzed using a Chi-square test.
