When Last Did You Check Your Blood Pressure, Sugar and Cholesterol?
You may feel healthy and still have an underlying condition that has not shown clear symptoms. Regular check-ups can help detect possible problems early, before they become emergencies. Start by knowing a few key health numbers: blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, weight or BMI, and blood oxygen level. A blood pressure reading around 120/80 mmHg is often considered healthy for adults, while oxygen saturation for most healthy people at sea level is usually 95–100%. Your ideal ranges can vary based on your age, medical history and other risk factors. Speak with a healthcare professional about the tests you need and how often to repeat them. When was your last health check-up?
