[|Human|] (1) Last week, i went for a health checkup as part of admission to university in August this year. When i took my blood pressure, it was recorded as 133/76. The nurse took a second reading and it was the same as well. When i saw the doctor, she told me that my blood pressure was slightly high, and she took a third time, but this time round, i wasn t told of my pressure. I was wondering if this blood pressure of 133/76 - isit considered as hypertension. My dad has history of hypertension and is currently under medication. And also, what are some things that I can do to keep my pressure normal if I do not want to see a doctor as of now, i.e. food to eat and abstain?
[|AI|]  Hi, Your present blood pressure is at a pre-hypertension level. Although you are not yet hypertensive, that level, along with your family history of having hypertension, puts you at a higher risk of being an over hypertensive. If I may only know more details about you, I would be able to help you more. But on top of these, one important aspect in the prevention of hypertension is the avoidance of salty foods, weight loss to appropriate levels, as well as aerobic exercise, all of which maintains optimal blood pressure. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
