Nearly 2 in 5 Young Adults Have Elevated Blood Pressure.



Among more than 18,000 young adults in the United States, researchers found that 23.9% had prehypertension and another 14.3% had hypertension. Compared to participants with normal blood pressure, those with prehypertension had 1.82 times the risk of death from any cause, while those with hypertension had 2.39 times the risk. These findings suggest that elevated blood pressure in young adulthood should not be overlooked.
