Advice: 22 Male 6’4 90kg High BP
Hey All, just looking to gather some advice/thoughts.
22 and have ranging BP 136/90 to sometimes 156/92. Not had one “normal” reading.
My plan is as follows.
I hope to allocate myself 3-6 months where I have consistent lifestyle changes. My job involved being sat down a lot and this may have had an impact. Also been quite stressful with family troubles. Diet often involved salty/processed/fast foods due to the nature of the job.
I am surprised to see high BP at this age, and I really want to avoid medication if possible at the early stages.
My BMI is 24 and it could be said, I look “fit and healthy”. I have no knowledge of anyone having high BP in my family.
Do people have any advice on the next course of action. And if there are any other young people here willing to share their experience, it would be greatly appreciated.
