# Ask the doctor or nurse to tell you the blood pressure reading in numbers.

Check Up Magazine Services :The National Institute of Health’s National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) classifies complementary and alternative medicine and therapies according to what it calls “practices”: 1) manipulative and body-based, 2) biologically-based, 3) energy medicine, and 4) whole medical systems.

Checkup Magazine

Check UP is based on an integrated set of health and wellness topics. At Check UP, we know it’s one thing to gather the information, yet it’s a different challenge when it comes to implementing and sustaining positive change to a healthy lifestyle.

Testing and healthy levels

Having your blood pressure tested is quick and easy. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and recorded as two numbers—the systolic pressure (as the heart beats) over the diastolic pressure (as the heart relaxes between beats). The measurement is written one above or before the other, with the systolic number on top and the diastolic number on the bottom. For example, a blood pressure measurement of 120/80 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) is expressed verbally as “120 over 80.”

Wear Appropriate Clothing
Choose lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing. In the hot sun, a hat and sunscreen is helpful. Wear light, loose-wicking clothing so sweat can evaporate. Better yet, invest in some clothes made with CoolMax®, Drymax®, Smartwool or polypropylene. These fibers have tiny channels that wick the moisture from your skin to the outer layer of the clothing where it can evaporate more easily.
