BLOOD PRESSURE CUFF:
Using the wrong size blood pressure cuff can lead to inaccurate readings, which can significantly impact your health. So in this video I’m gonna share with you my FIVE top steps on how to choose the correct blood pressure cuff size and wearing it correctly. Studies have shown that using a cuff that's too small can overestimate systolic blood pressure by about 5 to 20 mmHg, while a cuff that's too large can underestimate it by about 3.6 mmHg.

HOW TO TAKE YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE:
1- Wait 30 Minutes: Avoid measuring blood pressure within 30 minutes of eating, smoking, drinking caffeinated beverages, or exercising, as these activities can temporarily raise blood pressure.
2- Relax for 5 Minutes: Sit at a table with your back supported, arms on the table, and feet flat on the floor. Do not cross your legs, and use the restroom if needed, as these can affect readings.
3- Position the Cuff: Extend your arm with the palm facing up. Place the cuff 2 fingers above your elbow, ensuring it's snug but allows you to insert 2 fingertips under it.
4- Align Cuff Properly: Some cuffs have alignment markers; follow the machine’s instructions carefully to ensure accurate readings.
5- Prepare for Reading: Once ready, remain still without moving, chewing, talking, or laughing.
