  • About 85 million Americans — one out of every three adults over age 20 — have high blood pressure. (Nearly one of out six don’t even know they have it.)
  • The best way to know if you have high blood pressure it is to have your blood pressure checked.

High blood pressure is a “silent killer”
  • Most of the time there are no obvious symptoms.
  • Certain physical traits and lifestyle choices can put you at a greater risk for developing high blood pressure.
  • When left untreated, the damage that high blood pressure does to your circulatory system is a significant contributing factor to heart attack, stroke and other health threats.
There is hope
  • While there is no cure for high blood pressure, with proper treatment and management, you can live a long and healthy life.
  • An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
