Talk About It Tuesday - Lupus Tip of the Week: Manage Your Blood Pressure

The America Heart Association has outlined key steps you can take to control your blood pressure:

For more information read the chat transcript from Cardiovascular Health and Lupus with Dr. Amy H. Kao.

If you find no comfort in any of the above, you better pray. No, really. Studies show that people who engage in religious activities have lower blood pressure. Check out this article from webmd.com.
