What is the normal blood pressure for children?

Adults and children have different physical conditions in all aspects. Children need nutritional intake to strengthen their physical fitness. However, some children are over-nourished and are bound to gain weight, which will inevitably lead to some complications. While children are supplementing their nutrition, they should also pay attention to whether other physical indicators deviate from normal values. Children don’t understand anything, and sometimes they are unwilling to tell their parents when they are not feeling well, so this requires more observation.

Ideal blood pressure is: systolic pressure <120mmHg, diastolic pressure <80mmHg. Normal blood pressure: systolic pressure <130mmHg, diastolic pressure <85mmHg. Therefore, you can judge whether your child’s blood pressure has hypertension based on this blood pressure range.

So how can we help children stay away from childhood hypertension?

1. Prevent obesity. I don’t know when the number of obese children has increased, and the chance of children developing high blood pressure will increase significantly after they become obese. According to relevant research, a high weight can be the beginning of high blood pressure, so it is recommended that you pay more attention to your child's weight changes in life and do not let your child stay in the obese weight range for a long time.

2. Pay attention to your diet. Many children have the bad habit of picky eating in their lives. The longer the picky eating lasts, the greater the impact on the child's body will be, and high blood pressure will also occur as a result. Therefore, in order to stay away from high blood pressure, it is recommended that you pay attention to your children’s eating habits in life, let your children eat less high-fat and high-calorie foods, and eat more light foods, so that high blood pressure will naturally stay away from your children.

Finally, I hope that the knowledge about hypertension introduced to you today can help everyone and let everyone know how to help children stay away from the harm of hypertension. If your child has unfortunately developed hypertension, parents must pay attention to the treatment of hypertension in children. Hypertension is a disease that requires early detection and treatment. If hypertension can be detected in the early stages of the disease, the difficulty of treatment and the impact caused will be greatly reduced.
