Like most of your other commenters, I'm leaning towards "do the study", at least presuming that the numbers aren't going to prey on your mind too much. You might even get some interesting data on how your test results respond to diet.
(I personally found that dietary changes didn't directly affect my blood pressure, except to the extent that they made me lose weight. I was able to make a pretty dramatic change in my cholesterol through diet and exercise. On the other hand, my husband found that even with a fairly strict diet, he couldn't make much of a blip in his cholesterol numbers. Everyone's a bit different.)
