Preguntas comunes
What is normal blood pressure?
Normal blood pressure is below 120/80 mmHg. The top number (systolic) measures pressure when your heart beats, and the bottom number (diastolic) measures pressure between beats.
How can I lower my blood pressure naturally?
Reduce sodium intake (under 2300mg/day), exercise regularly (150 min/week), maintain a healthy weight, limit alcohol, eat potassium-rich foods, manage stress, and follow the DASH diet.
When should I worry about my blood pressure?
Seek immediate medical attention if readings exceed 180/120 mmHg. See your doctor promptly for readings consistently above 130/80. A single elevated reading is not cause for alarm.
What is white coat hypertension?
White coat hypertension is when blood pressure reads higher in a medical setting due to anxiety. It affects up to 30% of patients. Home monitoring gives a more accurate picture.
