Purchasing this blood pressure monitor is your first step in
living a healthier life, but it is only the beginning. It is
also important to:
STAY ACTIVE - Start out by taking just a short
walk each day. Over time you'll begin to feel more energetic. Walking is a fun, easy way to help lose weight and
also aids in building stronger bones and a healthier heart!
EAT HEALTHY - Adding more fruits and vegetables to your diet is a great way to start. Also, look at
incorporating more whole grains, fish and low fat dairy
products and keep a check on your sodium intake. If
you're using a blood pressure monitor, you should already
be aware of how sodium can affect your blood pressure.
You may want to explore the potential benefits of certain
botanicals such as onion and garlic. As always, consult
your physician before beginning any dietary changes.
