May is Hypertension Month and health professionals from across Canada are encouraging Canadians to know their numbers to help prevent and control hypertension and avoid its serious and deadly complications.
Hypertension is the leading preventable cause of death and disability around the world, and can lead to heart disease, stroke, kidney disease and dementia.

Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating World Hypertension Day:
In those who have hypertension, about 30% is related to increased salt consumption, and about 20% related to low dietary potassium, so chose foods wisely.
Physical inactivity is related to about 20% of hypertension, so get moving and active.
Obesity is related to about 30% of hypertension, so keep your weight in check.
Excess alcohol consumption also causes hypertension, so don’t over-indulge.
Being tobacco free is especially important for people with hypertension.
High blood pressure often has no symptoms. Most individuals with hypertension are unaware that their blood pressure is high, so get checked and keep your blood pressure in check.
