Suggest Remedy /medication For Bp In Children
My son is 15 years old and his blood pressure is around 135/75 most of the time. His kidneys were checked and there's nothing wrong. How can I help him without giving him any medications.
He is not overweight. He lost a couple of pounds since I changed his diet. But once in a while I let him eat junk food.

Hi There
I've read your query and understanding your concern.
I would like to tell you, Blood Pressure less than 140/90 is acceptable. It do not require any medication.
You should better control on his diet and junk food once a while is acceptable. And you just need to do adopt some lifestyle modifications for him
- motivate him for healthy diet
- avoid canned products
- eat fresh
- Exercise or daily brisk walk of 30 min
Hopefully I answered all your queries
Good Luck
