Everyone has made this mistake. What is the normal bl00d pressure for each age?

Blood pressure is a key measure of heart health, indicating the force of blood against artery walls. A reading around 120/80 mm Hg is considered ideal for most adults.

Healthy Blood Pressure Ranges:

  • Low: <90 / <60 mm Hg
  • Optimal: <120 / <80 mm Hg
  • Normal: 120–129 / 80–84 mm Hg
  • Normal to High: 130–139 / 85–89 mm Hg
  • High: >140 / >90 mm Hg

Children & Teens:

  • Newborns: 60–90 / 20–60
  • Adolescents: 112–128 / 66–80

Average by Age & Gender (Adults):

  • 18–39 yrs: Women 110/68, Men 119/70
  • 40–59 yrs: Women 122/74, Men 124/77
  • 60+ yrs: Women 139/68, Men 133/69

As we age, blood pressure often increases due to stiffening arteries, raising the risk of heart disease and stroke.
