  1. Blood Pressure Guide: Understanding High and Low BP for Better Health One of the most important signs of good health is blood pressure.

If your blood pressure is too high or too low, it can hurt your vital organs and make you much more likely to have life- threatening complications. The Most Recent New Blood Pressure Guidelines say that the key to avoiding problems like heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage is to know and control your blood pressure numbers.

Interpreting Blood Pressure Readings To properly read High and Low BP for Better Health, you need to know what the two digits indicate: •Systolic Pressure (Upper Number): Measures pressure in your arteries when your heart is pumping. •Diastolic Pressure (Lower Number): Records pressure when your heart is resting between beats. •Ideal Blood Pressure: Below 120/80 mm Hg •High Blood Pressure (Hypertension): 130/80 mm Hg or higher •Low Blood Pressure (Hypotension): 90/60 mm Hg or lower High Blood Pressure (Hypertension) Hypertension is when blood pressure against artery walls is always elevated. This, in the long run, damages blood vessels and adds extra load to the heart. •Health Risks •Stroke and heart attack •Heart failure •Kidney disease •Vision problems •Aneurysm (weakening of arteries) Symptoms Hypertension is frequently referred to as the "silent killer" because the majority of individuals do not demonstrate any symptoms until complications develop. In severe cases, patients might feel:

  3. •Severe headaches •Distorted vision •Chest pain •Shortness of breath Management •Follow a healthy heart diet. •Maintain a healthy weight. •Exercise for at least 30 minutes each day. •Limit salt consumption and not consume processed foods. •Quit alcoholic beverages and quit smoking. Follow prescribed medications as advised by your doctor. Low Blood Pressure (Hypotension)

  4. Hypotension is when your blood pressure drops too low to supply organs with sufficient oxygen. Symptoms •Fainting or dizziness •Weakness and fatigue •Nausea •Double vision •Cold wet skin Causes •Dehydration •Blood loss •Cardiovascular conditions •Some drugs •Nutritional deficiencies Management •Drink lots of fluids. •Increase the amount of salt in your diet (if advised by a doctor). •Wear compression stockings to improve circulation. •Treat underlying conditions like anaemia or hormonal imbalance. •In severe cases, medication may be required. How to Reduce Your Blood Pressure •Check Regularly: Take your blood pressure every day to detect early increases and decreases. Home-monitoring devices can prove to be a blessing. •Eat a Balanced Diet: Even slight weight reduction will have a remarkable impact on the blood pressure levels.

  5. •Eat Smart: Highlight whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and potassium-rich foods. Limit foods with added salt and sugar. •Exercise Daily: Get at least 150 minutes per week of brisk walking, cycling, swimming, or yoga. •Manage Stress: Practice deep breathing, meditation, or mindfulness. Stress is one of the biggest causes of blood pressure fluctuations. •Quit Alcohol and Quit Smoking: They both cause arterial injury and increase hypertension. Phases of High Blood Pressure & Treatment Plan •Normal BP (<120/80 mm Hg): Maintain a healthy lifestyle. •Elevated BP (120–129/<80 mm Hg): Adopt heart-healthy practices to prevent escalation. •Hypertension Stage 1 (130–139/80–89 mm Hg): Lifestyle change; drug therapy if another risk factor(s) is/are also present. •Hypertension Stage 2 (≥140/90 mm Hg): Requires drug treatment and lifestyle modification. •Severe Hypertension (>180/120 mm Hg): Recheck after 1 minute. If persistently high, seek medical care at once. Hypertensive Emergencies If your blood pressure is above 180/120 mm Hg and you have: •Chest pain •Difficulty breathing •Sudden vision disturbances •Numbness or weakness •Speech difficulty •Call emergency services at once This is a hypertensive emergency and could be dangerous.

  6. The Connection between Blood Pressure and Heart Disease Both high and low blood pressure can have a serious effect on cardiovascular health. Hypertension is dangerous for arteries and can cause heart attack and stroke, while hypotension lowers blood pressure and oxygen supply to organs.
