Today is World Hypertension Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about high blood pressure, a condition that affects millions of people around the world. High blood pressure, if left untreated, can lead to serious health complications such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure.
At Queen Square, we believe that prevention is key. That's why we encourage everyone to take charge of their health by monitoring their blood pressure regularly, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and eating a balanced diet low in sodium and saturated fats.
If you have high blood pressure, it's important to work with your healthcare provider to manage the condition through lifestyle changes and/or medication. Remember, small changes can make a big difference when it comes to your health.
Let's spread the word about hypertension and encourage everyone to take action towards a healthier future.
