Just try and maintain good eating habits! Some foods will be better for it than others :) Hmmm, staying fit and healthy can definitely have a good long term effect on your blood pressure. But in the short term your blood pressure will be raised if you do too much exercise that your body isn't used to. So going for a morning walk can be good as long as you take it easy and don't work your body too hard! :)

Hi friend, your pressure is bit high. 120/80 is most desirable but some times it varies with age and type of hard labor etc. Take more water in the morning without taking breakfast and no food within one-two hours. Also take soup of sour fruits. Have a very nice day.

do you have this problem? do you take meds if you do take meds then maybe this is normal, though for the people who do not have the problem this is little hight and warnning also, the normal is less than 130 and les then 90 or if that is the pressure after you sport then its ok.

Wow, do you use a digital sphygmomanometer? You know those things aren't recommended because they aren't as accurate as having a real human being to check your blood pressure for you. At your age, it is a bit high as the normal is 110/70 some go for 120/80 but 110 is better. Chew on some garlic, it lowers down blood pressure.

I'd have to say that that's pretty high. My mom is 55 and hers is only 130/80. You've got to get yourself checked up and ask for medical advise.
