Many of us have high blood pressure.

Regular blood pressure monitoring at home is important for adequate blood pressure control.

But, many of us are not aware of the correct ways of measuring the blood pressure at home.

I hope this video gives you a fair idea about measuring the blood pressure correctly at home.

Watch it. Share it with your family members who have poorly controlled blood pressure.

In case you have any questions regarding this topic - ask in the comments.

29th September is *World Heart Day* - it is an initiative to raise awareness about _heart health and cardiovascular diseases_ worldwide.

Our lifestyle plays a significant role in determining the health of our hearts.

Simple changes in lifestyle can go a distance in preventing heart diseases.

So what causes heart diseases? I talk about the risk factors of heart disease in this video. Watch and share it with those around you, enabling everyone to make informed choices about diet, exercise, and lifestyle to prevent heart disease.
