Measure Blood Pressure
high blood pressure has been proven to be the leading cause of heart disease across the board. High blood pressure levels lead to hypertensive heart disease, which causes your heart to thicken and and your arteries to narrow. Even if you don’t currently have high blood pressure, the American Heart Association advises that monitoring blood pressure levels should be at the top of your healthcare priorities.

Always Check Up On Yourself
If you have haven’t checked your blood pressure, cholesterol, or blood sugar for a long period of time, you should do it as soon as possible. You should aim to check your blood pressure once every year, check your blood glucose every three years, and monitor your cholesterol every four to six years. Just because you have been healthy up to this point in your life, it doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about your health deteriorating in the future. You should always be monitoring your levels.
