我媽媽有高血壓，我爸爸沒有。目前為止，我的血壓也正常。我61歲了，每年都去做一次身體檢查。我的外表更像我媽媽，但我的新陳代謝像我爸爸。我什麼都吃，也不會變胖。我只是有點擔心我近期的健康狀況。
#4 I heard there are many factors that cause high blood pressure. Especially in family members, they have similar lifestyles, share the same foods, and have similar genetics. I think high blood pressure would be affected by these many factors. So I hope you keep staying healthy with CashWalk ! :)
A family history of high blood pressure is a risk factor for developing HBP. Having one or more close family members with HBP before the age of 60 means you have twice the risk of having it also.
There are multiple factors and conditions that can influence your blood pressure but genetics does play a role in this as well
A lot of different factors go into hypertension, genetics is apart of those factors. People with family history of high blood pressure have a higher risk of developing it. (21)
It would depend on the cause of high BP in your dad. If it was primary High BP i.e. there was no underlying disease, your risk increases. If he developed it at a young age, your risk increases as well. If he an underlying disease that could be inherited, then your risk increases too. And while genetics definitely increases your risk of high BP, it's good to remember it will only increase the risk. If you are maintaining a good lifestyle - regularly exercising and eat and healthy diet, maintain your weight and mental well being, you can bring that risk down to 0. But at the same time, if you are 61, it's important to check your BP at regular intervals, say 3 months so that if you do develop high BP, you treat it immediately.
If one or more members of your family have high blood pressure than you are in risk that you can have it too.
If your family members have blood pressure issue its advised to take precaution and reduce salt consumption
Yes. Having a family member with high blood pressure increase the possibility of having one.
