ADVERTISEMENT [British Heart Foundation](   [British Heart Foundation]( Over 5 million adults in the UK have undiagnosed high blood pressure and don’t know they are at risk. The only way to know whether you have high blood pressure is to have it measured. Knowing your blood pressure numbers could help save your life. Blood pressure is the pressure of blood in your arteries. Your arteries are the vessels (tubes) that carry blood from your heart to your brain and the rest of your body. You need a certain amount of pressure to get the blood moving around your body. Your blood pressure naturally goes up and down throughout the day and night, and it’s normal for it to go up while you’re moving about. It’s when your overall blood pressure is always high, even when you are resting, that you need to do something about it. Normal blood pressure is usually considered to be between 90/60 mmHg and 130/85 mmHg. Checking your blood pressure at home is quick and easy. To help you check your blood pressure at home the British Heart Foundation (BHF) offers a variety of blood pressure monitors validated by the British and Irish Hypertension Society, ensuring clinical accuracy and reliability.
