Regular Check up

You need to regularly check your blood pressure and cholesterol. If you monitor regularly it would warn you before it’s too late.

  • Blood Pressure. Most favorable blood pressure is less than 120/80 millimeters of mercury. Generally adults should check it in every couple of years. However, if you are having any risk factors, then you should check more frequently.
  • Cholesterol. Everyone should check their cholesterol level at least once in every five years. Children having a family history of heart disease should be screened in childhood only.
  • Diabetes. Diabetes is a risk factor for heart disease, so consider having a fasting blood sugar test. Consult your doctor, follow his advice and accordingly get the test done. According to American Diabetes Association you should start testing at the age of 45 years.
