I won’t let this one pass without saying something about it, ( but sorry , it’s passed ) what matters most is that I am sharing this to YOU. No matter how old you are. And pls keep sharing ! Although women over 55 have a higher risk of high blood pressure, recent studies show an increase in the number of younger women with heart disease. https://bit.ly/33BuX5y... National Women’s Blood Pressure Awareness Week is a weeklong observance lead by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office on Women’s Health. The observance, which took place October 11-17, 2020, highlighted the importance of blood pressure control and monitoring among all women, with an emphasis on women ages 18-44. NWBPAW will empower women to take control of their health by sharing everyday actions they can take to maintain a healthy blood pressure and improve their overall heart health. WHY IS THE FOCUS ON WOMEN AGES 18-44? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 27.7% of women have hypertension (high blood pressure). Nearly 50% of these women have uncontrolled hypertension. Women of reproductive age (18- 44) with hypertension are at an increased risk for mortality due to cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease. According to the World Health Organization, hypertension, and related complications, is second only to hemorrhage as the most common cause of maternal death internationally. The CDC also found that pre-eclampsia and eclampsia were related to 6.6% of maternal deaths during pregnancy, 9.3% of deaths within 42 days after pregnancy, and 5.4% of deaths 43 days to 1 year after pregnancy. Data suggests that efforts to improve blood pressure control among women of reproductive age could improve the overall health of women and reduce maternal mortality. Monitoring your blood pressure at home by yourself (or self-monitoring) is a great step towards getting it under control.

Everyone knows smoking is bad for your health, but sometimes knowing isn’t enough to make you stop. Set a date for quitting and tell as many people as possible to help hold you accountable for your actions. It's best to pick a day within the next month - a date too far off in the future will give you a chance to procrastinate and postpone, while a time too soon may not allow you to make a plan for medications or support systems. Notice when and why you smoke. Try to find the... things in your daily life that you often do while smoking (such as drinking your morning cup of coffee or driving a car). Change your smoking routines: Keep your cigarettes in a different place smoke with your other hand. Take these steps toward a healthier you! If you need extra support, don’t hesitate to reach out. #womenswellnesscoaching #healthylifestyle

Do you wish you had better-eating habits? Most of us do! Here are a few tips on keeping a healthier diet: 1. Eat three meals a day - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Keep in mind that dinner does not have to be the largest meal, in many cultures the largest meal is consumed in the middle of the day.... 2. The bulk of your diet should consist of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free or low-fat dairy products. 3. Choose lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts for your protein. 4. Control portion sizes; eat the smallest portion that can satisfy hunger and then stop eating. 5. Avoid eating a large meal before sleeping to decrease gastroesophageal reflux and weight gain. 6. Avoid rewarding children with sugary snacks. 7. Snacks are okay in moderation and should consist of items like fruit, whole grains, or nuts to satisfy hunger and not cause excessive weight gain.
