Hello,
Your blood pressure is round the margin as age increases 140/90 is considered fine. As your physician told to go for a saltless diet go for it. Try not to stress much avoid pressure cooked good to for steamed foods. As your susceptible to hypertension as your mother is hypertensive do the bp checkup often to be on safer side.
If it goes above this you should go for anti hypertensive drugs that will be prescribed by your physician. Also check your cholesterol levels to be on safer side, Hdl, triglycerides and Ldl. Otherwise don't stress much. Thank you.
