Nutrition and Blood Pressure — Kannelmäen palvelutalo/Palvelukeskus, Helsinki
Description was written before the event

This lecture introduces healthy food choices and how to read food packaging labels.

Proper nutrition supports blood pressure management either alongside medication or when medication is not yet needed. A varied diet rich in vegetables, berries, fruits, whole grains, and healthy fats promotes heart and cardiovascular health. Regular meal times and moderate portion sizes help with weight management, which in turn affects blood pressure.

The lecture is given by Heljä Tuomarla.
