You Don’t Need Super Powers to Be A Stroke Hero

Start by Controlling Your High Blood Pressure 

About 75 million Americans have high blood pressure, the leading-controllable risk factor for stroke, but you don’t have to be one of them!

During American Stroke Month teach and take the following steps to manage your blood pressure and protect your health:

  • Be counted as someone who knows their numbers at heart.org/hbp. Knowing your numbers is an important step in protecting your brain.

  • Controlling blood pressure is just one of the ways to prevent a stroke. Discover the other tips and share them with your loved ones.
