The best way to measure your blood pressure🫀

7-2-2 Rule:

7 days take your blood pressure.
2 times per day, morning and evening.
2 measurements each time.

Then take the average of all recordings.
Don’t rely solely on one annual blood pressure reading.

❤️ October is Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month!

Every year, approximately 356,000 Americans experience cardiac arrest outside of a hospital. When the heart suddenly stops beating, every second counts. ⏱️

Knowing how to respond could save a life:

❤️ Call 911 immediately
❤️ Start CPR — push hard and fast
❤️ Use an AED if one is available

Immediate CPR can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival.

This October, take the time to learn CPR, locate an AED, and spread awareness. Being prepared could make all the difference. ❤️

🧊❤️ Cholesterol screening is just the tip of the iceberg.

A standard cholesterol panel—including total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and triglycerides—is an important part of understanding your heart health. But additional testing, such as ApoB, Lipoprotein(a) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring, may provide a deeper look at cardiovascular risk for some people.

Knowing your numbers and talking with your healthcare provider about your individual risk can help you make informed decisions about your heart health.

❤️ Dig deeper. Know more. Protect your heart.
