What is a good blood pressure for a 55 year old male?

Answer 1

There isn't really a normal blood pressure, there is a continuum of blood pressures among ppl at any age (for example, 50). By age 50, about 1/2 of Americans will have a blood pressure that is higher than what cardiovascular disease prevention guidelines have set as targets.

The goal blood pressure for a 50 year old person without any other medical issues is <140/90. People at higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease have correspondingly lower blood pressure targets. People with kidney disease, Diabetes or prediabetes (also known as metabolic syndrome), and those with known cardiovascular disease (heart failure or previous heart attack) should have a target blood pressure of <130.80.

Answer 2

Systolic over Diastolic speaking....120mmHg/80mmHg is a good mark to strive for. Its a textbook average and is healthy. A little lower blood pressure (115/75) is more desired, however 120/80 is fine, as well as 125/85. Health conditions you may or may not have will be factors to your blood pressure.

Answer 3

120/80 normal range...bit lower even better.!

Answer 4

The average blood pressure of a 58-yearold man should be around 140/85. Anything over 150/90 is considered borderline and should be looked at by a physician.
