Pulse Fort

That cuff squeezing our arm at every doctor's visit is important. It measures the amount of pressure flowing through our arteries with every heartbeat. If our blood pressure gets too high, the extra force can damage artery walls and create scar tissue. That makes it harder for blood and oxygen to get to and from your heart. The heart has to pump harder and gets worn out faster. If it can't get enough oxygen, parts can start to die. Get our blood pressure checked every 3-5 years if you’re 18-39. If you’re 40 or older, or if you have high blood pressure, check it every year.

Getting enough nutrition is crucial. It’s more important than anything else except maybe sleep. Focus on nutrients rather than calories, and eat a variety of healthy foods. We can’t achieve optimum nutrition with limited choices.

Choose one we're comfortable with, so we can openly discuss all aspects of our health, from your mental state to our sexual function to our overall wellness.
