The truth about blood pressure might surprise you…
In the 1970s, doctors said your BP was fine if it was simply your age + 100 For example, if you were 60, a systolic pressure of 160 was considered normal. Systolic measures the pressure during the heart’s contraction, while diastolic is the pressure in the period between heartbeats.
Then studies came out pushing the “perfect blood pressure” down to 120/80 which sounds healthy.. but it also meant millions more people suddenly needed pills. Here is the catch, heart disease is still the #1 cause of death.
In 2017, the ACC/AHA lowered the high blood pressure threshold to 130/80 mmHg from 140/90 which meant 30 million more American adults have high blood pressure.
So what is normal?
✔️ Systolic (top number): 110 + half your age
✔️ Diastolic (bottom number): Under 100
Blood pressure naturally rises as we age that’s normal physiology, not always a disease.
