Salt plays an important role in the body, but too much can raise blood pressure and increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Many processed foods contain hidden salt, so it’s easy to consume more than recommended. On the other hand, very low salt levels can sometimes contribute to symptoms like muscle cramps, weakness or fluid balance issues, especially if combined with dehydration.

Staying well hydrated, keeping active and aiming for a balanced diet can help support healthy blood pressure. Understanding how salt affects your body can help you make informed choices. 🧂💧🩺✨

More than 10,000 calls have been made to Martha’s Rule helplines in the first 16 months of the NHS scheme, helping thousands of patients benefit from changes to their care and potentially saving lives.
Martha's Rule helps detect deterioration in hospital patients early. It gives patients and families the right to call for a rapid review if they are worried a loved one’s condition – or their own – is getting worse.
Staff can also ask for a review from a different team if they are concerned any appropriate action is not being taken.

Good sleep habits are essential for both physical and mental wellbeing.

Struggling to fall asleep or waking frequently during the night can affect mood, concentration and overall health.

Simple changes like keeping a regular bedtime, reducing screen time before bed, limiting caffeine and creating a calm sleep environment can help improve sleep quality.

Understanding the possible causes of sleep problems and accessing trusted advice can make a real difference. Better sleep supports better days. 😴🌙💙✨
