SENIORS: What’s the Best Blood Pressure After 60? (Most Get This Wrong)

Blood pressure advice often sounds simple after 60. One number. One target. One goal. But the body does not age in straight lines, and arteries do not behave the same way they did decades earlier. Many seniors are told their blood pressure is “too high” or “needs to be lower,” without anyone explaining what that pressure is actually doing for the brain, kidneys, and balance system. Others feel dizzy, weak, or unsteady after treatment and are told it is just part of aging. In this video, Doctor Warren Hung explains what blood pressure really means after 60, why common targets are often misunderstood, and how the same reading can protect one person while harming another. This is not about chasing numbers. It is about understanding circulation, aging vessels, and long-term function. If you or someone you care about has been confused by changing blood pressure advice, this explanation will help you see the system behind the measurement—and why “lower” is not always better later in life.
