Pressure And Age Links

A recent study which involved more than 2000 people has found that high blood pressure isn’t so harmful as previously thought unless you’re older. If your blood pressure has been normal your whole life, you should make some lifestyle changes in order to prevent it from rising when you get older. High blood pressure in the elderly has been related to kidney problems, damaged heart arteries, heart failure and stroke, which is why you should do everything you can to prevent it.



There are many drugs which can relieve blood pressure, but they are all aggressive and have adverse side-effects. Experts say that there’s no universal cure for high blood pressure – the treatment depends on your age and other factors.

According to the American Heart Association, the normal blood pressure for 20-year olds is 120/80 mm/Hg. You should do screenings every couple of years in order to protect your cardiovascular system from the dangers of hypertension. Every single heart beat raises or lowers pressure between the beats – these changes occur every minute depending on your stress levels and physical activity.

High blood pressure is a common problem for a big part of the world population and affects 1 out of every 3 people in the USA. High blood pressure is considered when the levels rise over 140/90 mm/Hg – if left untreated, this blood pressure can have negative consequences on your health. A blood pressure of 180/110 mm/Hg is considered alarming and requires immediate medical treatment.

Due to its negative consequences on our health, we should do everything we can to lower our blood pressure and maintain it afterwards. However, make sure to treat the problem naturally as the common hypertension medications have far too negative consequences on our health.
