123/85

Its probably lower but I can never get an accurate reading because I get anxiety just thinking about getting measured or measuring myself.

I've had multiple first readings come in at 150/100 and the nurse is like :dahell:. :mjlol:

My is 112/73. I try to avoid sugar & trans fats. ATM just doing light work outs these weeks.
this is what people dont understand...
...its the sugar and carbs that does it.

you cut them out and your BP will drop quick fast.

when people say "high BP runs in my family"...
...thats VERY wrong.

your body is probably sensitive to sugar/carbs

Yeah... I don't eat fat free. But the right fats. Almonds, cashews & walnuts. Eating fish like salmon, mackerel & trout. Avocados & olive oil.
No sugar & when just some maple sirup.

Some people have a higher bp naturally. It also does run in families. Just like cancer and other ailments.

Lifestyle changes are ideal but the HBP meds work with minimal side effects.

I don’t believe sugar and carbs have a direct correlation to BP.
