Pressure Wise: a free online education event on blood pressure
You're invited to Pressure Wise
Tuesday 6 December 2022, 7–8 pm AEDT
A FREE community education event on blood pressure and heart disease.
Did you know that around 1 in 3 Australian adults have high blood pressure (BP), most of whom have uncontrolled BP levels?
High BP is when your blood pressure is permanently higher than normal levels. High BP is the main risk factor for heart disease, especially heart attacks and strokes.
Fortunately, there are many things you can do to reduce your chance of developing high BP or keep it under control.
There are often no obvious signs or symptoms of high BP, so having regular checks and seeing your GP for a Heart Health Check will help you improve your heart health.
Topics will cover:
• What is high blood pressure and what are the risk factors for developing it?
• What is the best diet to eat for healthy blood pressure?
• What is the best activity to do for healthy blood pressure?
• What is a Heart Health Check?
• What has blood pressure got to do with stroke?
To learn more about BP and how you can improve your heart health, join the 2022 Pressure Wise online event.
We look forward to seeing you there!
