Well, the Holidays are in full swing here. Parties, food, meeting and joining in with friends and neighbors for joyous celebrations. It is all wonderful and I am glad that using my High Blood Pressure monitor has allowed me to keep my hypertension under control. When my hypertension is out of wack, I feel tired, dizzy and my eyes don’t even want to focus correctly. So, it is very important to me to keep using my sphygmoimanometer at home so I know where my numbers are.
Food is also a big part of the holidays around our house, so I am also trying to watch what I am eating. We all know that sugar and salt are hidden in all sorts of seasonal foods. I have been eating more vegtables and making sure I do some exercise at least 3 times a week. From my blood pressure readings, I am doing OK so far.
I do hope you are considering “healthy” presents for your loved ones this year. See my previous blog (below) to see some of my ideas. Have you purchased a “healthy” present for someone? Care to share?
Have great Holidays at your home and hopefully, we will talk in the new year!
