Owning Your Heart Health: A Recap of Hypertension Awareness Month

May was Hypertension Awareness Month, and at BIOS Medical, our mission was clear: to raise awareness about high blood pressure and empower individuals to take proactive steps toward better heart health.

We’re proud of what we achieved together, and as the month comes to a close, we’re reflecting on key highlights, health education, and the role of accurate blood pressure monitoring in long-term wellness.

Why Hypertension Awareness Month Matters: Understanding the Risks & Taking Action

Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a condition where the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries is consistently too high. Over time, this extra pressure can damage blood vessels and organs, increasing the risk of serious health problems. Hypertension Awareness Month is important because it shines a spotlight on a widespread but often overlooked health issue.

Hypertension Awareness Month focuses on:

• Early detection and regular blood pressure monitoring
• Understanding preventable risk factors
• Making heart-healthy lifestyle changes
• Building community and support for long-term care

What We Shared: Education, Awareness & Action

Throughout May, BIOS Medical shared valuable content to support our community's heart health journey. Here’s a quick recap:

·         Blood Pressure Education: We broke down what blood pressure numbers mean and how to track them accurately.

·         Lifestyle Tips: We emphasized the importance of physical activity, healthy eating, stress reduction, and regular health check-ins.

·         World Hypertension Day (May 17): We spotlighted the importance of movement, supported by medical professionals, to manage blood pressure naturally.
