Fructose, a type of simple sugar, raises the levels of uric acid in the blood.   This inhibits the production of nitric oxide needed to help your blood vessels maintain flexibility, so when levels of NO are lowered, you can experience a rise in blood pressure.

Sugars in processed foods are considered a main driver of hypertension, especially "added sugars" rather than those that occur naturally in fruit or milk.

Furthermore, research suggests that sugar intake can actually increase salt sensitivity, leading to the enhanced negative effects of sodium on blood pressure.  A 2017 research study, in fact, discovered an association between sugar intake and high blood pressure in older women.5

Sugar consumption, therefore, leads to specific impacts that can contribute to hypertension.
