🩺 NEW 2025 Blood Pressure Guidelines Are Here! 🩺
The American Heart Association has just released updated guidelines for blood pressure management, and the changes are significant! The new recommendations include:
✅ Target blood pressure: Less than 130/80 for most adults
✅ Even tighter control (under 120 systolic) when possible
✅ Lower sodium intake (ideally under 1,500mg daily)
✅ New focus on preventing dementia through better BP control
✅ No age cutoff - healthy aging means managing BP at any age!
What's exciting is that these guidelines emphasize the connection between blood pressure control and cognitive health. Studies show that better BP management can actually help prevent dementia and improve memory function! 🧠
