Blood pressure measures the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries.<\/p>

  1. Normal blood pressure:<\/strong> Below 120\/80 mmHg<\/p><\/li>

  2. Elevated blood pressure:<\/strong> 120\u2013129\/<80 mmHg<\/p><\/li>

  3. Hypertension (Stage 1):<\/strong> 130\u2013139\/80\u201389 mmHg<\/p><\/li>

  4. Hypertension (Stage 2):<\/strong> 140\/90 mmHg or higher<\/p><\/li><\/ol>

    When blood pressure stays high over time, it strains the heart, arteries, and other organs.<\/p>\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
