Taking Control of Your Blood Pressure
It is estimated that one in every four American adults has high
blood pressure. High blood pressure increases your chance (or
risk) for getting heart disease and/or kidney disease, and for
having a stroke. It is especially dangerous because it often has
no warning signs or symptoms. Regardless of race, age, or
gender, anyone can develop high blood pressure. Once high
blood pressure develops, it usually lasts a lifetime. You can
prevent and control high blood pressure by taking action. We
encourage you to educate yourself on High Blood Pressure
using information provided by the National Institutes of Health
found at the link below.
