On average, a person who is 65 years old can expect to live another 16 years. A person who is 75 can expect to live another 10 years, and a person who is 85 can expect to live another 6 years. People 75-85 years old can also expect to be able to function independently for at least half of that period. In these age groups, our health care goal shifts from extending lifespan to postponing dependency. While preventing disease is still important, maintaining good health for older adults focuses on preventing a loss of function and supporting the abilities we need to remain independe

What does blood pressure tell doctors?

Blood pressure is a good indicator of the overall health of your cardiovascular system. Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the walls of your blood vessels by your blood as pumped by your heart. IF your blood pressure is elevated, your heart has to work harder to pump the blood through your body. High blood pressure is serious and can be life threatening, so check with your physician if you have a family history. Low blood pressure can cause dizzy spells and fainting, so try to keep an eye on your blood pressure and keep it within the normal range of 90-120 over 60-79.


Please tell me, what is blood pressure?

High blood pressure is the force that blood exerts in blood vessels when the heart contracts and relaxes. The systolic pressure is the force by blood being pumped by the heart, and the diastolic pressure is the force when the ventricles are refilled by blood. High blood pressure means that the heart needs more pressure in order to contract and relax, therefore straining your heart and putting you at a higher risk of having a heart attack. Bill Nye once said in one of his episodes that garlic can help soothe high blood pressure.
