Healthy Living
This blood pressure monitor is the first step to living a healthier life.
But monitoring your blood pressure at home is just the beginning, it’s
also important to:
EXERCISE REGULARLY
---- Start out by taking a quick walk each
day. Before you know it, you’ll feel energize. That’s because
along with being an easy way to shed a few pounds, walking also
helps your bones and heart become stronger.
EAT RIGHT
---- Remember, you are what you eat! So when you
reach for a snack, try grabbing a piece of fruit or a vegetable. When
cooking meals at home try to use fats and oils sparingly.
Sometimes a healthy diet is the best medicine of all! It’s also a
good idea to monitor your sodium intake because about one-third of
individuals who have high blood pressure are also sodium sensitive.
