High blood pressure is a silent but serious threat — and knowing your numbers can save your life.

Check your blood pressure regularly and track your readings over time.
Aim to keep your blood pressure below 140/90 mmHg — and remember: the lower, the better for your heart, brain, and kidneys.

Taking action today protects your health tomorrow.

Know your numbers. Take control. Stay healthy.

Today is World Hypertension Day.
High blood pressure - or hypertension - often shows no warning signs, yet it increases the risk for heart disease, stroke, blindness, dementia, and other complications.
A simple blood pressure check can be life-saving.
Getting your blood pressure measured the right way helps ensure accurate results.
Incorrect positions can lead to incorrect readings.
✔ Sit with your back supported
✔ Legs uncrossed and feet flat on the floor
✔ Arm supported with the cuff at heart level
✔ Use correct cuff size
✔ Rest for at least 5 minutes before the reading
✔ Do not talk during or between measurements
✔ Avoid exercise, tea/coffee, and smoking for at least 30 minutes before reading
Small steps can make a big difference in protecting your health.
