It should be a simple question – Do You Know Your Blood Pressure?In the UK, Fitness Trackers have taken us by storm, with many of us calculating our sleep, our steps, our activity levels, inclines climbed. As well as knowing the macro nutrients and calorie intakes of the foods we have consumed.
However, many of us will be unaware of such a vital statistic as to what our blood pressure is…
This is not entirely surprising, as unless you have an existing illness, are on medication, regularly visit the Doctor’s or have unexplained symptoms, you could go years without the need for it to be checked.
Without being alarmist, it is known as the ‘Silent Killer’, and that is because often people can have no symptoms, despite suffering with Hypertension. Shockingly, for many, it is only when they have a stroke or heart attack, that they realise they had an underlying condition such as high blood pressure.
Earlier this year NICE (The National Institute for Clinical Excellence), updated the guidelines surrounding blood pressure.
Blood Pressure is governed by two numbers:
Systolic – Top Number (maximum pressure point when the heart contracts).
Diastolic – Bottom Number (the point when the heart relaxes – this is defined as when the blood vessels are under the least pressure).
Below or at 120 over 80 is the ideal point.
120 over 80 to 140 over 90 – means you should be taking measures to actively reduce your blood pressure.
140 over 90 – under the new guidelines would be considered high blood pressure, and you may be offered medication as well as lifestyle advice to reduce the number.
If you are concerned, or have any other health factors or symptoms then you should see your GP.
Otherwise, your pharmacy may well offer a blood pressure check.
It is worth knowing that some people get ‘white coat hypertension’, i.e. they get a false high reading, as a result of nerves and being in a medical setting. In these cases, it can be useful to purchase a machine and take regular readings at home to get a benchmark.
It is estimated that 62000 deaths occur in the UK unnecessarily each year from strokes and heart attacks, as a result of poor blood pressure control. So, ACT NOW!

I had a reading with Teya today. I was blown away by her understanding of my current situation. She made some very positive predictions and advice. I look forward to the outcome. Teya has a lovely warm personality and it radiates in her voice. Towards the end of the reading at my request she brought through some family members who passed over. I found her descriptions and messages spot on! I would love to connect with her again. Many thanks.

Must report an astounding reading from John 5152. While I have been privileged to have received readings for many years and all have been so important this from John was more real than you could ever imagine. Relaying messages and comments that could only have come from those I once knew in life and are clearly unchanged in the other. Good work and so important. John has such an impressive gift.
