TCM and Hypertension(High Blood Pressure)

ssjohn143

Just to clarify, the new guidelines for the JNC-7 state:

120/80 to 139/80 prehypertention
140/90-159/99 stage 1 hypertension
>160/100 stage 2/severe hypertension

One shold consider any BP creeping above 130/80 as something to take note of, potentailly treat, and monitor. In general, BP only naturally gets higher as people age.
