00:14 High blood pressure lurks unnoticed, earning its ominous nickname as that "silent killer".

00:24 1. Embrace low sodium options.
00:26 Swap out the salty indulgences like french fries for low sodium alternatives.
00:30 Opt for foods labeled "no salt added" and be mindful of your daily sodium intake,
00:35 aiming for no more than a teaspoon (2,300 mg) for most individuals,
00:39 but consult your doctor for personalized recommendations.
00:42 2. Moderate alcohol consumption.
00:45 Keep your blood pressure in check by limiting alcohol intake.
00:48 Men should cap themselves at two drinks per day, while women should stick to one,
00:51 understanding that moderation is key to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
00:55 3. Engage in physical activity.
00:57 Infuse your day with heart-pumping aerobic exercises such as brisk walking,
01:01 jogging, or dancing for at least 30 minutes daily.
01:04 Break it into manageable chunks of 10 minutes if needed,
01:07 knowing that every step contributes to your well-being.
01:09 4. Practice portion control.
01:11 Trim excess calories to support weight loss, a boon for blood pressure management.
01:15 Be mindful of portion sizes, especially when dining out,
01:19 and consider saving leftovers for later to avoid overindulging.
01:22 5. Break free from tobacco.
01:24 Bid farewell to tobacco in all its forms as it jeopardizes your blood vessel health,
01:28 elevating the risk of high blood pressure.
01:30 Seek guidance from your doctor and explore local support groups
01:33 to craft a quitting plan tailored to your needs.
01:35 6. Embrace stress-relieving techniques.
01:38 Combat stress with healthier coping mechanisms like yoga, deep breathing,
01:42 or meditation instead of turning to unhealthy habits like drinking or overeating.
01:46 Learn to prioritize self-care and set boundaries to maintain a balanced lifestyle.
01:50 7. Lean on your support network.
01:53 Harness the power of community and family support,

02:10 which likely echo the principles outlined in these tips.
02:12 If medication is part of your treatment plan,
02:15 adhere to dosage instructions and don't hesitate to seek clarification if needed.
02:19 9. Explore supplement options.
02:22 While supplements should complement rather than replace a healthy lifestyle,
02:25 certain nutrients like calcium, potassium, coenzyme Q10,
02:28 and omega-3 fatty acids may offer blood pressure benefits.
02:31 Consult your doctor before incorporating supplements to ensure compatibility with
