I've been monitoring my blood pressure for a few weeks. While my diastolic pressure always is in the desirable range, my systolic pressure indicates that I do prehypertension. Among the main cause of prehypertension, the only one I have is a sedentary life style. I don't smoke, only causally drink, am not overweighted and I pay a special attention not to eat too much sodium. There's a family history of hypertension on my mother's side too.
I know I haven't been very active physically during the past two years (worked too much) and maybe that's why I show signs of hypertension. Is the systolic pressure more accurate than the diastolic pressure to indicate clearly that one suffers from hypertension?
