		<description>High blood pressure can be dangerous but so are the many myths and misinformation about it. The drugs used to treat it can also be very dangerous.

For decades, high blood pressure was considered anything above 140/90 and even this figure was adjusted for age as blood pressure tends to increase as we get older. 110 over 70 is a very low blood pressure for an adult and only the most extreme judge would call that the norm.

The amount of drugs required for many people to reach that level would kill you before the high blood pressure would.

Having said that, 165/105 is definitely too high, especially at 35 years old. It could be true that high blood pressure runs in your family but you can still do a lot to keep it down. Your diet and fitness level is extremely important. If you are overweight and/or unfit you may be able to reverse your high blood pressure with simple lifestyle changes.

Even if your lifestyle is healthy there are other natural ways to deal with high blood pressure. Have you heard of slow breathing? It helps many people when everything else has failed. Check the website below for free information and instructions.

With some effort you may be able to reach a point where you can maintain healthy blood pressure without medication. Lots of people have done it, some with hypertension worse than yours.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;http://www.control-your-blood-pressure.com</description>

		<description>Any increase in blood pressure over the norm increases your risk of stroke. The more you are over the norm, the higher your risk of stroke. The recommended norm for blood pressure is 110/70. Blood pressure readings over 120/80 are pre-hypertensive. Blood pressure readings over 140/90 are hypertensive. Try avoiding foods that raise blood pressure (salty foods, snacks, processed meats) and eating foods that lower blood pressure (foods high in potassium). Walking 45 minutes a day at a moderate pace also helps.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;http://www.collectivewizdom.com/FoodsThatReduceBloodPressure</description>

		<description>The exact pressure is hard to tell, It&#039;s the damage done by being high for long periods that could cause a stroke. So get it down and keep it down is your only safe thing to do now.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
