Eat a healthy diet low in sodium. Get daily exercise, even walking helps. Do not smoke. Check your blood pressure often, even if you are at Walmart or the mall, they usually have blood pressure check points. Remember that it will be a little higher after any kind of exercise, even just walking. Rest for about 5 minutes or so before taking your BP for a better reading. Get regular check ups with your doctor. Being nervous or upset can also cause a high reading. Lots of people get good readings at home or else where and then have higher readings at the doctors. It is caused by nerves. And good for you for being concerned enough to do something about it. Many your age would not even pay enough attention to worry about it.
Check it again a couple of times, at rest, and it ll probably be normal. As a matter of fact, 148/80 is very normal if you aren t at rest. If it s OK for a couple of more checks, then you should probably keep an eye on it (maybe a couple of times a year) but there s no point in getting all worked up over a single reading in which only the systolic was high.
you gotta cut down on salt, caffeine, and dont overload your body with water. it s uncommon for young adult to have hypertension, however black people are at higher risk so its good you re thinking about it early. don t start smoking! and keep a healthy diet with omega 3 and 6 oils (fish oils) and without fatty foods.
Talk to your doctor, not people on the internet. Also, ask to see a Nutritionist so that you consume foods to keep you where you should be bp wise. Stay active, don t ever smoke. But seriously kiddo, speak with your doctor.
eat healthy, cut down on salty, processed foods, be at a healthy weight and don;t drink, don t smoke. Take calcium, multivitamins, and hawthorne. If these don;t help, the doctor might prescribe medication to keep it under control.
