Know the Risks
Do you know what your blood pressure is? Why it’s important to find out? High blood pressure is often called an invisible disease because it has no visible symptoms; however, high blood pressure poses a serious health risk because it forces your heart to work extra hard. If you suffer from high blood pressure your blood vessels could be damaged with each beat of your heart, and it can lead to a stroke or a heart attack.
