These new rules say that people should start making changes to their lifestyle, and, in some cases, take medicine when their blood pressure reading hits 130\/70 mm Hg instead of the old standard of 140\/90 mm Hg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It used to be that adults&#8217; blood pressure (BP) couldn&#8217;t be higher than 140 mmHg for systolic pressure (SBP) and 90 mmHg for diastolic pressure (DBP). These new recommendations aim to pinpoint those most at risk for hypertension and its consequences for the cardiovascular system, and start treatments and adjustments to lifestyle earlier. Dr. Mary Greene, a cardiologist with Manhattan Cardiology in NYC, contributes to this article. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/blood-pressure-130-70-too-180057730.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read the article.<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New recommendations for the diagnosis, prevention, management, and treatment of high blood pressure have been released.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":14499,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[126,128],"tags":[232],"class_list":["post-14491","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-media","tag-blood-pressure"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Is 130\/70 Blood Pressure Too High?
