What is it about?

You will be able to follow your blood pressure over time and use the history of your measurements to keep track of your weight. 

The measurements that are taken using this application are not an indication of the level of your blood pressure, but only of the state of your blood pressure. The blood pressure is a dynamic quantity and varies with the current state of your health, thus making it necessary to take it several times at different moments of your life, which is what is shown in this application.

Why is it important?

Blood pressure and weight are closely linked to the heart, and if your blood pressure is high, it is also a true risk factor for heart problems, and for diseases of other organs such as the kidneys or the brain. That is why high blood pressure should be taken very seriously.

We should also be aware that, although it is not the primary cause of cardiovascular disease, it is also associated with a much higher risk for developing it. And this risk increases with age, so that a man older than 60 has a more than 30% higher risk of suffering from cardiovascular disease than a man of 30 years.

Moreover, if you are overweight or obese, your blood pressure is also higher, and this condition is associated with a higher risk of heart disease, even in the case of people who do not have high blood pressure.
