High blood pressure has many risk factors. Some you can't control, such as age, race and family history. But don't throw up your hands quite yet.

Include physical activity in your daily routine. 3. If you drink, do so in moderation. That means no more than two drinks a day for men and one drink a day for women. 4. Learn healthy ways to handle stress, such as muscle relaxation and deep breathing. 5. Avoid excess salt in your diet.
