Good morning all

It’s World Hypertension Day💃

High blood pressure: is called the “silent killer” for a reason — it often has NO symptoms, but can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney disease, and early death.

🌍 Around 1.4 billion people worldwide live with hypertension, yet many don’t even know they have it.

📅 On World Hypertension Day (17 May), the message is simple:

~Check your blood pressure regularly.* It could save your life.

Simple habits can make a big difference:

🥗 Eat healthier foods with less salt
🚶 Stay active
🚭 Avoid tobacco
🍷 Reduce alcohol intake
💊 Take medicines as prescribed

📌 Treatment works — but only if hypertension is detected early and managed consistently.

We all have a role to play in defeating the silent killer together.

~Ensure you Know your blood pressure level ❗️❗️❗️

Remember Health is Wealth.
