Let's talk about blood pressure
Managing blood pressure is essential for protecting your heart and overall health. High blood pressure, also called hypertension, often has no symptoms but can lead to serious conditions like heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems if left untreated.
According to the American Heart Association, a healthy blood pressure is considered to be below 120/80 mmHg. Making small lifestyle changes, such as being more active, eating heart-healthy foods, reducing sodium, and managing stress, can all make a big difference in ensuring optimal health outcomes. Self-Monitored Blood Pressure (SMBP) can aid in tracking your numbers overtime. Consult with your doctor about your blood pressure numbers. Even small steps can have a big impact on your heart health!
Benefits of managing blood pressure include:
- Reducing risk of heart attack and stroke.
- Protecting kidneys and other organs.
- Improving energy and quality of life.
- Supporting healthy aging.
