Know your numbers
Are you at risk for diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions? Thankfully there is a system of “numbers” that allows you to assess where you are in comparison to recommended levels. These levels are a list of numbers – blood pressure, good and bad cholesterol, blood sugar, body mass index and waist circumference – that help you identify your own health status.
Here are some useful brochures and lifestyle management guides to help you understand your numbers and avoid or manage chronic health conditions.
