Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The new American Heart Association (AHA) blood pressure guidelines are expected to raise the prevalence of high blood pressure to \~46% in the United States. One recommendation for lowering blood pressure is aerobic exercise, which produces a period of lowered blood pressure (post-exercise hypotension; PEH) that lasts up to 24 hours. It is believed that PEH may be responsible for the observations of lowered blood pressure following initiation of exercise. However, most Americans eat too much salt, which expands plasma volume and may prevent PEH, rending aerobic exercise ineffective in improving blood pressure status.
