WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR
blood pressure
,
DON’T MISS A BEAT.
Managing high
blood pressure is
vital. Learn how
you can better
your heart with
simple changes to
your lifestyle.
1
TAKE YOUR HEART TO HEART.
It’s your most important organ. Still, one in three
people suffer from high blood pressure, also
known as hypertension.1 Don’t be that one in three.
Take the right steps to monitor and manage
your heart to decrease your risk of heart
disease and increase your life expectancy.

KNOWING THE NUMBERS.
When taking your blood pressure, it’s always good to know
exactly where you stand. But first things first:
What do the numbers actually mean?
Systolic Pressure is the top number. It represents the
pressure as your heart contracts to pump blood to the body.
Diastolic Pressure is the bottom number. It represents the
pressure between beats, when your heart relaxes.

You can
easily manage
your blood
pressure by
monitoring at
home, morning
and night.

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS.
It’s surprising how often your numbers can change; that’s
why home monitoring is important. Did you know that
blood pressure in the morning can be significantly different
than at night, or when you visit a doctor’s office?
By using an accurate monitor at home, you’ll be able to
detect and track the changes in your blood pressure.
This way you can make the right lifestyle changes.

A BETTER HEART
STARTS WITH A
BETTER LIFESTYLE.
7
Exercise
Just be a little more active. Walk instead of drive, take the stairs instead
of the elevator and count your steps to a healthier heart.
Eat smart
Try to find low-fat, low-sodium substitutes that also taste great. Potassium
found in bananas and carrots is nature’s best medicine for your heart.
Kicking the habits
Minimize your alcohol and cigarette intake. If you’re going to have a drink try
red wine, which, in moderation, is better for your heart.
Stifle your stress
Stress is a normal part of life. But too much can increase the risk of heart
disease. Relax by doing things you enjoy (yoga, gardening, walking, etc.)
and your heart will benefit.
SMALL CHANGES, HUGE REWARDS.
Managing your high blood pressure doesn’t have to take a
lot of work. In fact, small improvements to your lifestyle can
significantly better your heart. Here’s what you can do:
