Lower salt. Eat more vege fruit. Go gym.

Can be revert. Dont look down on kidney, it can withstand for some high pressure but will cause permanent damage if you just let it be.
It would not show immediately but maybe 10-20 year it will show.
My advice, eat less salty food, more vege that contain alot fiber, not vege pill vege juice (fiber more important).
Have moderated workout maybe 1 week at least walk for 3 hour, (30min per day not that much).

Really no joke.
My ofis colleague age 42 kena stroke ..
Work as production engineer & smoking habit.
Doctor ask to take high blood med he don't wan take ...
Lucky didn't die hitting the toilet bowl .

This one is padan muka didn't listen to doctor. Already say got problem ask to take meds don't want to listen don't want to change lifestyle.

I've also had more than half dozen friend n collegue combined who is below 45 just gotten onset of high blood pressure...

and I've found something that is common with most of them... bear in mind these ppl are not fat n mojority dont even drink... known them for more than 10 years...

Reduce salt intake
Manage stress
Not more than 3 glasses of wine a week
Zone 2 and Zone 3 training 30 minutes a day 3-4 days a week
Sleep 6-8 hours a night
Walk instead of drive

I share here before, I got friend working in big 4, died after he suffered a stroke while hiking. Ambulance couldn't reach him in time as he was halfway in the hill jungle.

Stressful job, bad eating and drinking habits and lack of sleep killed him.

heya!
there's a similar thread here not long ago, High Blood Pressure at 31, who am i kidding.
There are some useful insights shared there, hopefully you can go through it when you got the time.

For me, the general public punya response to these sort of thing (stroke/high bp) is:
1. kurangkan garam/less salty <- yea, sounds right BUT you got time to cook your own meals 3times/day? eating out, the salt portion is almost entirely out of your hands
2. less caffeine/kopi <- for me, i have stopped 3-in-1/2-in-1s, i still take nescafe/kopi tarik
3. this one konfem 10/10 will say - EXERCISE/DIET/LOSE WEIGHT <- just sweat it out every day is good enough, no need hit the gym also can sweat one, go for runs (the air guaranteed fresher than aircon gym)/ go for badminton/pickleball sessions (or like me, kena covid bedridden 1 week, lose almost 10kg <- PLS DON'T)

i know one guy 55yo, cycle like crazy

no high blood pressure.

slim and in good health.

Harha naik = Bp naik...

Sometimes those free soup at Chap Fan restaurant have too much salt in it.

You hav to see what cause the HBP. If due to old age ( blood vessel harden), there is nothing you can do but take med to control and reduce caffeine drinks.

If due to lifestyle... Then you have the answer already. Cut alcohol, take note of your diet in terms of salt, sugar and fats intake. Cut caffeine drinks even it's O. If got uric acid have to cut down red meat and substitute with white meat or find high protein vegetable or beans. Control abit on calories intake.

Besides diet, Can start with light exercise like walking instead jogging or cardio. Coz when you hav high blood pressure and do heavy/ fast pace exercise or cardio, that's when suddenly a person faint or worst sudden critical / death due to blood vessel burst or heart attack.

In the end, know your limit and observe moderation

and i am a 154kg dude who still cycles on average a 150km/week. 45 years old and thankfully with no illness. BP typically 118/62 with RHR of 68. apparently not in Malaysia but in countries like UK, the term that refers to people like me are MHO (metabolically healthy obese). All i could do is just keep being active to spiral down the other end of health scale!!!!

wow! 154KG dude but can cycles 150km/week really not bad.

thanks buddy! gotta do it before i end up being 200 kg hahaha! i do zwift on mon, wed and thur for bout 100km total, then weekend tapau the remaining 50k

what is the common factor?

nothing new, many time it is genetic.
nearly half of american adult having HBP.

eat balance diet fresh food, sleep more and keep active once in a while, less stress as much as possible.

coffee less sugar and less condensed milk or no at all

u still have to keep working until 75-80 , who know one day God play a joke on u and live until 80-130age

just can say reduce oily food, drinks, soft drink, processed food

but still u have to eat ubat, lifestyle change not enough actually , also need go see doctor check up once 1 year

but human stress is unavoidable so manage your stress by sleeping , eliminate the root of the problem and settle quickly as soon as possible , dont stick with wrong people and focus your own thing only because at the end of the day u are the one who control your body after all and live your own life ( 过你自己的生活 )

from my aunt who still living relatively okay with minimal stress at her 60-70s

better find a way to slim down, 154kg can cause back and knee issues.

It puts a lot of strain on your knees.

As you age, your cartilage gets thinner.

Also it does no good for your BMI.

Bro.. don't leave this condition as-is until your kidney or heart KO.

Either you need to get dialysis permanently or heart failure that requires long term medication.

how tall are you man?
was 112kg also feel tired to carry own weight... 178cm
aim to be 80kg for ideal bmi is 78kg...

i am 175 cm, yes its no easy task lugging the weight

A friend got Conn syndrome / Hyper alderestone and it can also lead to High BP. taking HBP meds works, but much better to treat the Conn Syndrome.

Many people chasing 20k celery here. But they don't know the amt of 3H pills they pop everyday..

Stress at work.. Melayan at work drinking.... Sleep little... Hit target..

Not a life I wanna live

Bro, very common these day...
Everybody in a rat race ... Rising cost of living also contributing to stressful life.

In this case, you need to check with cardiologist, some vessel clogged

True that, and customers tend to over indulge in this coz its foc.

True. Just found a job that suit your life will do.
You may ask yourself a simple question. Having 10M or having lot of disease for the rest of your life? You will get your answer very easily.

take care man...
try getting to ideal bmi soon if possible.
all the best to us.

I just went to see the doctor last week for my annual check-up.
Everything was good, but my LDL was borderline, and I was advised to lose a bit of weight.
We had a chat about high blood pressure (BP), and here are some key points:

1. The youngest high BP case he has seen was as young as 9 years old. The child wasn’t obese, so it could be genetic.
2. Coffee can cause a temporary spike in BP due to caffeine.
3. Lack of sleep and stress also play a role.
4. If you are obese, the best thing you can do is get to a normal/healthy BMI first.
5. Diet (eating right) is more important than exercise.
6. Leisure walking is better than running especially for obese people.
7. Weight/Bodyweight training is better than HIIT or cardio.
8. Unless you have a specific fitness goal, points 5,6 and 7 are enough to maintain your health.

Stay fit and healthy /ktard~

Need to go to doctor to check and determine what is the cause of high blood pressure.

Contrary to popular believe, high blood pressure can have multiple cause that is not related to diet.

My last check shows that everything in my blood test is OK and need to perform further check for endocrine and MRI since I am also constantly dizzy.

MRI result shows that I have a blood vessel impacting a nerve in my left brain leading to vertigo, discomfort and contributed to high blood pressure.

I am curious on point #7. Weight training is better than cardio? Mind to explain on that? Thanks.

I suffer from HBP since age of 40 (now in 50s) with weight around 70kg. The meter went up > 200 until error displayed when first discovered. Have to stay hospital a few days for observation. I don't feel any pain or anything cause by HBP. The doctor prescribe HBP pills. However all these years blood pressure is not stable, mostly high. Much later more dosage prescribed until doctor said dunno what other medicine to add.

A few years ago, I discover sugar/carbohydrate is the culprit. By doing intermittent fasting and low or no sugar/carb diet, I manage have stable blood pressure and permanently reduce medicine by half. Eat only two meals a day. No rice, noodles, bread etc. Only vege and meat. Skip breakfast. No snacks, late dinner and supper. Eat real food and not process/junk/fast food. Avoid sweet and alcohol drinks. It may take weeks or months for blood pressure to come down. Intermittent fasting and diet also reduce weight which is a good thing.

IMO, in general Malaysian food contains too much carbs and drinks are too sweet. Also poor eating habits. That's why more youngsters nowadays get HBP and diabetes.
