I have hypertension, but I am somewhat athletic 5 6quot; and 130 lbs? -

I don t take medication. And I m not nervous when I go to the doctor. I don t drink coffee or any stim. It is consistently 140/90.

Do you exercise regularly? Hypertension may run in your genes. Are your parents hypertensive? What type of foods are you eating? Try to limit fatty foods.

Watch you salt intake. almost everything you eat has salt in it even sweets.oh, and diet sodas.

One of the best ways to fight hypertension (short of taking medication) is to take garlic pills. They re cheap and safe. But keep an eye on your blood pressure. And stay in shape. Obesity would make it worse.

Do you smoke? Do you drink? Are you on a low fat diet? Do you drink any kind of caffine drink? Do you take any kind of medications? Do you use street drugs or other people s prescriptions drugs? Do you have stress in your life?(personal,financial etc) These are valid questions and often times questions that few people consider when they speak up increased blood pressure. If these questions do not prove to give you the answer you are looking for then you might consider the family gene pool as it can often give you the answer you are looking for.
