A happy Vesak to everyone who celebrates!!

Vesak (or Wesak/ Buddha Day) commemorates the birth, enlightenment and death of the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama. Celebrating Vesak also means making special efforts to bring happiness to others that may be struggling, like the elderly, the disabled, and the sick.

Today is World Hypertension Day!
Hypertension is often called the “silent killer” because it usually has no symptoms but significantly increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, and premature death. Early detection, regular monitoring, and sustained treatment can prevent most hypertension-related complications.

The theme of this year’s WHO World Hypertension Day, "Controlling Hypertension Together: check your blood pressure regular, defeat the silent killer” is a shared responsibility, requiring action from individuals, families, communities, health professionals, and health systems.
About 80% of people with Type 2 diabetes has high blood pressure. Over time, diabetes damages the small blood vessels, causing the walls of the blood vessels to stiffen and function improperly. These changes contribute to high blood pressure, which is why it is so important to have your regular diabetes checks and attend eye screening to reduce the risks of damage.
