Further information
• If your values are mostly normal under resting conditions but exceptionally
high under conditions of physical or psychological stress, it is possible that
your are suffering from so-called "labile hypertension." Consult your physi-
cian.
• Correctly measured diastolic blood pressure values above 120mmHg
require immediate medical treatment.

2.3 What can be done if regular high/low values are obtained?

a) Consult your physician.
b) Increased blood pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are
associated with considerable health risks over time. Arterial blood vessels
in your body are endangered due to constrictions caused by deposits in the
vessel walls (Arteriosclerosis). A deficient supply of blood to important
organs (heart, brain, muscles) can result. Furthermore, the heart will
become structurally damaged with increased blood pressure values.
c) There are many different causes of high blood pressure. We differentiate
between the common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary
hypertension. Secondary hypertension can be ascribed to specific organ
malfunctions. Please consult your physician for information about the pos-
sible origins of your own increased blood pressure values.
d)There are measures you can take to reduce and even prevent high
blood pressure. These measures must be permanent lifestyle changes.
1) Eating habits:
•Strive for a normal weight corresponding to your age. See your doctor
for your ideal weight.
• Avoid excessive consumption of common salt.
• Avoid fatty foods.
