Trying to get blood pressure back to under 130/75. Has crept up to 140+/80-85... Not outrageous but I'm cognizant about this factor as both parents are on BP meds ( my mother has been since her 30's which I just entered).
I've started walking for 30-60 minutes a night and have seen progress but know that this is likely going to be a lifetime battle.
I have 3 questions...
1) Do you consider my BP unsustainably high? 140/80
2) I feel way better with salt in the diet but understand that it plays a role here. What other dietary adjustments can I make to keep BP in check?
3) At what BP would you say you would need pharma intervention while still addressing other factors?
