High Blood Pressure

Hi,

Go to the doctor and get his full checkup done and also monitor the pressure at different point of time in a day to get an average one. BP keeps flactuates though out the day.

Hope it helps.

High blood pressure (HBP) or hypertension means high pressure (tension) in the arteries. Arteries are vessels that carry blood from the pumping heart to all the tissues and organs of the body. High blood pressure does not mean excessive emotional tension, although emotional tension and stress can temporarily increase blood pressure. Normal blood pressure is below 120/80; blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is called "pre-hypertension", and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered high.


The top number, the systolic blood pressure, corresponds to the pressure in the arteries as the heart contracts and pumps blood forward into the arteries. The bottom number, the diastolic pressure, represents the pressure in the arteries as the heart relaxes after the contraction. The diastolic pressure reflects the lowest pressure to which the arteries are exposed.

 

Hi,
I was on BP meds for over 5 years (moderate high). I lost 60 lbs and started running 3 years ago. Didn't see much improvement in my BP by just losing weight but when I quit drinking soda and reduced my high levels of sugar and salt my BP dropped a bunch. I don't drink any soda, diet or otherwise now at all and am more careful about my salt intake. I also increased my fiber intake.
