Blood pressure depends on the individual. For a really active person it can be a bit on the higher end and vise versa. You should find out from your doctorwhat yournorm is. Blood pressure is variable. In the morning, just before arising, your systolic/diastolic blood pressure might be 104/78 mmHg. After eating breakfast and having coffee, it could change to 128/74 mm Hg. While sitting at your desk at work your level could rise to 149/79 mmHg. An annoying comment from a customer could push your blood pressure to 164/68 mmHg. You could blow off steam of take a walk (on a lunch hour if you are at work) and this in turn will lower the blood pressure to perhaps 130/70 mmHg. It's wise to get your blood pressure taken. Have a pharmacist do it at the drug store (they have blood pressure machines there.) Sometimes when people go to their doctor worrying about a problem they may have their blood pressure could sky-rocket and in some people it could be very low.

To an extent, yes. Cinnamon was found to have a chemical that acts similar to insulin and causes the body to more efficiently store and use blood sugar which will lower blood pressure to a degree. 1-2 grams of cinnamon a day will provide this result, BUT this is not an excuse to skip on blood pressure medication. While cinnamon can help with high blood pressure it is no substitute for medication.
