Hai,
As our blood pressure may be elevated due to anxiety also.
read the Blood pressure while you are in physical and mental rest.
avoid stress and anxiety. Be relaxed while reading the blood pressure.
Blood pressure can be controlled by reducing the intake of salt and adding more fiber vegetables and fruits.
physical exercise daily 30 minutes brisk walking.
performing yoga will help in controlling blood pressure within normal limits.
thank you
hope i answered your query
