Male has high blood pressure 150/90 over 3 hrs. ate pork and beef today for first time in a while. has been drinking plenty of water but still high?

Salty meat?: Was the meat salty? Or was anything else eaten with the meat salty? A high salt load can do this in the short term. Drinking water helps, but the numbers will still take their time coming down. If the higher numbers persist into the next day, visit with a doctor.
