[INTRO] Hey everyone—today I'm asking: Am I at risk for hypertension? Let’s break it down and see what signs to watch for.

Poor diet, too much salt, lack of exercise, stress, smoking, alcohol—and yes, even family history. It affects young people too, not just the elderly. [STORY] A friend of mine was diagnosed at 32. He changed his lifestyle—eating better, exercising—and turned things around. That inspired me to check my own health. [CONCLUSION] High blood pressure is preventable. Know your numbers. Small changes can save your life. [CTA] Have a story or tip? Drop it in the comments—and hit subscribe for more health content!
