Eating too much salty food and lacking exercise over the long term can easily lead to high blood pressure, so we should develop healthy living habits.

Since developing high blood pressure, my mom always uses less salt when cooking and also goes for a walk in the park every morning.

The doctor said that if high blood pressure is not controlled, it may cause serious conditions such as heart disease and stroke.

The company arranged a health lecture for its employees, with the topic of how to prevent common chronic diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
