On Thursday, May 16, 2019, the Florida Department of Health in Orange County has scheduled a documentary screening and panel discussion in observance of National Hypertension Education Month. Starting at 5:30 pm, the event will be held at the Saint Mark African Methodist Episcopal Church, 1968 Bruton Boulevard, Orlando, FL 32805.
The documentary is “High Blood Pressure: A State of Emergency in the African American Community.”
During the month of May, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute challenges Americans to participate in a national pledge to #MoveWithHeart to help reduce their risk of high blood pressure (hypertension).
Why move more? Being active can:
- Protect your heart (even if you have heart disease)
- Improve blood flow
- Lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels
- Give you more stamina and ability to cope with stress
