Are you interested in contributing to novel research to help improve monitoring of blood pressure?

We're seeking volunteers (21 years or older) to help us assess how new cuffless wrist-worn devices measure blood pressure compared to traditional 24h cuff-based monitors. (1/3)

[BloodPressureUK @BloodPress_UK]

Too much salt = higher blood pressure = higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
Most of the salt we eat is already in our food.
Check labels, cook fresh when you can, and go easy on the shaker.

[BloodPressureUK @BloodPress_UK]

High blood pressure silently puts pressure on every inch of your blood vessels, which is why Knowing Your blood pressure Numbers is very important. Check your's today

[BloodPressureUK @BloodPress_UK]

Public health advice has long recommended eating less salt and more fruit and veg to support better health. This new research itself confirms that both strategies work together.
