Further information
If your values are mostly standard under resting conditions but exceptionally high under conditi-
ons of physical or psychological stress, it is possible that you are suffering from so-called «labile
hypertension». Please consult your doctor if you suspect that this might be the case.
Correctly measured diastolic blood-pressure values above 120 mmHg require immediate medical
treatment.
2.3. What can be done, if regular increased/low values are obtained?
a) Please consult your doctor.
b) Increased blood-pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are associated long- and medium
term with considerable risks to health. This concerns the arterial blood vessels of your body, which
are endangered due to constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls (Arteriosclerosis). A de-
ficient supply of blood to important organs (heart, brain, muscles) can be the result. Furthermore,
with long-term continuously increased blood-pressure values, the heart will become structurally
damaged.
c) There are many different causes of the appearance of high blood pressure. We differentiate between
the common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary hypertension. The latter group can
be ascribed to specific organic malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for information about the
possible origins of your own increased blood pressure values.
d) There are measures which you can take, not only for reducing a medically established high blood
pressure, but also for prevention. These measures are part of your general way of life:
A) Eating habits
Strive for a normal weight corresponding to your age. Reduce overweight!
Avoid excessive consumption of common salt.
Avoid fatty foods.
B) Previous illnesses
Follow consistently any medical instructions for treating previous illness such as:
Diabetes (Diabetes mellitus)
Fat metabolism disorder
Gout
C) Habits
Give up smoking completely
Drink only moderate amounts of alcohol
Restrict your caffeine consumption (Coffee)
