Here’s what you need to know about blood pressure:

About one in every three Americans has high blood pressure. There are no symptoms and only just over half of the people with high blood pressure receive treatment.

Often called the “silent killer,” uncontrolled high blood pressure can cause stroke, heart attack, heart failure, and kidney failure.

Blood pressure measures how hard your heart needs to work to push your blood through the veins and arteries. The top number is the pressure during a heartbeat, and the bottom number is the pressure between beats.

Stress, dehydration, lack of sleep, inactivity and poor diet and raise you blood pressure.  Pay close attention to your lifestyle to keep your blood pressure in check.  Visit your physician or nurse to be screened annually.

Tips on managing blood pressure.
