I'll just say that the definition for hypertension gets updated to lower and lower values every ~15 years or so. Used to be that a systolic BP of over 140 was considered hypertensive and an indication to treat, but now...

The AHA, which is probably the most corrupt health organization in America, has decided that a BP over 130 is hypertensive and should be treated. As a rule, it is probably best to ignore what the AHA has to say, since it is more of a marketing arm of pharmaceutical companies than a real medical organization. I would treat all the medical doctors working for them as prostitutes.
