High blood pressure is often called the “silent killer” because most of the time people do not experience symptoms.
Untreated high blood pressure can impact your physical health and can lead to conditions such as heart attack and stroke.
Proper treatment and management is key for living with high blood pressure, and can lead to living a long, healthy, and productive life!
Home blood pressure monitoring is a great way to monitor and track your blood pressure. Try using a home blood pressure monitor, document your blood pressure readings, and share your blood pressure readings with your health care provider!
The American Heart Association is a great source for learning about high blood pressure, healthy diet and exercise, and how to manage high blood pressure. Visit the American Heart Association Website.
