Take Action!
Find out your blood pressure as early as possible. Even if you do have high blood pressure, you can take steps to protect your health.
Get Your Blood Pressure Checked
Many shopping malls, pharmacies, and grocery stores have blood pressure machines you can use. Most of these machines do not cost any money. Or you can visit a doctor.
Eat Healthy
Changing your diet – especially eating less salt – can lower your blood pressure. Start at the grocery store by choosing foods that are low in sodium. Buy fresh, frozen or canned vegetables with no salt added.
