Is blood pressure 132/86 normal?

Blood pressure 132/86mmHg is normal blood pressure, but it is a normal high value state, which means that the blood pressure level needs to be closely monitored, and the blood pressure may increase further and finally develop into hypertension. The Chinese Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Hypertension stipulate that a blood pressure of less than 120/80 mmHg is the ideal blood pressure, and that a systolic blood pressure of 120-139 mmHg and a diastolic blood pressure of 80-89 mmHg are considered normal high blood pressure. People with blood pressure at this level need to maintain a healthy lifestyle by ensuring a low salt and low fat diet, not smoking and drinking less alcohol. Patients should do more exercise, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, do not be sedentary, pay attention to weight control, avoid stress and anxiety, and monitor blood pressure regularly.
