Try to take your blood pressure measurements at the same time and under the same conditions every day. The ideal time to measure your blood pressure is in the morning just after waking up-before breakfast, any major activity or exercise. This will give you a base blood pressure measurement. It is best to take readings closely together if you want to check whether one reading is accurate. Rest for 30 seconds then take another reading. Blood pressure can vary even over a few minutes.It depends. If you are taking medication for maintaining normal blood pressure then you should choose a particular time to check blood pressure every day, preferably, a time when you are not disrupted by work or other situations. Keeping a consistent time to check your blood pressure is important. But, if you are checking to see whether you have blood pressure, you should take your blood pressure at different times during the day. An average blood pressure can thus be obtained. If you find that your blood pressure fluctuates above the normal levels, you may want to check with your doctor for dietary advice. Ask your doctor about taking nutritional supplements, like Blood Pressure Matrix that can support the body's ability to maintain normal blood pressure.
