I've had high blood pressure since 24. I've had every possible diagnostic test, tried medication (no avail). I'm not overweight and do walk about 50 minutes a day, eat as healthy as can be expected. And still it averages around 170/90. I gave up on it. If global disaster doesn't kill me first, it'll probably be a heart attack around 50. There are worse ways to go. Seriously, even lifestyle changes for the relatively healthy only seem to make a 10 mmHg difference, so eh. Whatever.

Try intermittent fasting and/or keto diet. My pressure changed from 140/90 to 120/70 only with the diet. Needless to say that literally all aspects of my life improved with this change. Come to the Church of Intermittent Fasting®.

What does the data say about the risks to someone like you (i.e., otherwise healthy, healthy lifestyle, etc.)? Certainly if you didn't take care of yourself the risk would increase. But, perhaps, high BP isn't as risky if it's the only risk you have.
