[|Human|] Hi I am 23 years old and actively lift weights but dont focus much on cardio. My diet kinda sucks and have been drinking alot of soda. Well I checked my blood pressure the last couple days and my results have been around 136 over 65 with 65 bpm. Does that seem a little high on the systolic side?
[|AI|]  Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Regarding your concern, I would explain that your systolic blood pressure values are above the normal ranges for your age. But a single blood pressure values is not indicative of arterial hypertension. It can be related also to physical or emotional stress. Even taking a lot of caffeine or salt can lead to these blood pressure values. I would recommend you to closely measure your blood pressure values, frequently during the day (in sitting position after 10 minutes of total relax) and refer those values to your attending physician. You may need to stop this diet, if your blood pressure values remain high. Further lab blood tests may be needed to exclude other secondary causes of high blood pressure (electrolyte imbalance, high blood sugar, kidney or liver dysfunction). Hope to have been helpful! Kind regards,
