For most people, the following is a guide.

Bl00d pressure Systolic (top number) mm Hg Diastolic (bottom number) mm Hg
Low Less than 90 Less than 60
Optimal Less than 120 Less than 80
Normal 120–129 80–84
Normal to high 130–139 85–89
High Greater than 140 Greater than 90

Around 120/80 mm Hg is often considered a typical blood pressure reading.

Below is the average bl00d pressure for children and teens:

Age Systolic (top number) mm Hg Diastolic (bottom number) mm Hg
Newborns up to 1 month 60–90 20–60
Infants 87–105 53–66
Toddlers 95–105 53–66
Preschoolers 95–110 56–70
School-aged children 97–112 57–71
Adolescents 112–128 66–80

 

In adulthood, the average bl00d pressures by age and gender are:

Age Women Men
18–39 years 110/68 mm Hg 119/70 mm Hg
40–59 years 122/74 mm Hg 124/77 mm Hg
60+ years 139/68 mm Hg 133/69 mm Hg

The effect of ageing on bl00d pressure

The chance of having high blood pressure increases as you get older.

This is due to structural changes in your body’s blood vessels or vascular system. Arteries get stiffer, which causes bl00d pressure to rise.

High bl00d pressure is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease, especially heart att.acks and str0kes.

How to maintain healthy bl00d pressure at any age? 

  • Maintain a healthy weight: Being overweight is known to increase bl00d pressure – losing excess weight can help lower blood pressure to healthier levels.
  • Follow a healthy diet: It’s crucial to eat a nutritious diet that is low in salt, saturated fat, trans fat, LDL cholesterol and sugar. This means eating a variety of vegetables, fruit and whole grains and nutrients that can help reduce blood pressure.
  • Exercise regularly: Being physically active every day, even just via activities like walking and gardening, can help lower blood pressure.
  • Quit smoking: Not smoking has been shown to lower blood pressure as well as reduce its damaging effects on the arteries.
  • Avoid or limit alcohol: Regular excessive drinking has a clear connection to ongoing high bl00d pressure. It’s been shown that heavy drinkers with high bl00d pressure may be able to lower their levels by cutting back to moderate drinking
