Salt intake won't affect cholesterol levels, but it doesn't slightly contribute to higher blood pressures.

Yes. Increased sodium in your blood stream causes the kidneys to struggle with removing water from your system and in turn, raises your blood pressure.

    I have low blood pressure which is why I thought salt would be good for me but now I find I have high CHOLESTEROL. The reason I ask is I love popcorn (which is awful without salt)

What are the common causes creating high blood pressure. what can you do to combat high blood pressure.

Not enough exercise- taking regular exercise and losing weight is VERY effective in lowering BP.
Reduce salt intake - fast food is very heavy in salt so eat more fruit and veg, chicken, fish, lean meat.
Lower your cholesterol intake - which can cause narrowing of the arteries and contribute to high BP. Animal fats like that in meat and dairy are the worst but use olive or sunflower oil for cooking, drink semi skimmed milk and control the amount of cheese and red meat you eat.
Hope this helps.

What is the normal blood pressure rate of a persons fro 39yrs

"NORMAL" is a relative term...

Look at the numbers in the picture YOU submitted...
My picture is better (both could be considered "GOOD")

I'd make two suggestions for that:
1. The diastolic is a bit high... cut the SALT INTAKE
2. THE PULSE is actually high
...

70 is not a great "resting" pulse: SERIOUSLY CONSIDER GETTING AROBIC level of exercise several days every week.

But the most IMPORTANT suggestion I can give...
VERY SOUND advise:

Routinely visit your DOCTOR...!!

Don't get MEDICAL OPINIONS off of the internet.
Treat your health like your life depends on it.

It's your diet (high cholesterol) that's going to kill you.

It does...!!

HDL & LCL & Triglycerides

fats in the blood or arteries still bad to have high numbers
if you want to live a bit longer
medications and diet control required to manage this condition

our total cholesterol score is calculated using the following equation: HDL + LDL + 20 percent of your triglyceride level. HDL (good) cholesterol. With HDL cholesterol, higher levels are better. Low HDL cholesterol puts you at higher risk for heart disease.
