I was recently diagnosed with moderate to high blood pressure(140/85) and after much research I decided to try a natural remedy as i was very wary about prescription drugs to control blood pressure and their potential side effects. After research on the internet i found out about LEVODYN and the positive reviews it has so i decided to try it and it was amazing after only a few weeks to a month my blood pressure started to fall. Now my blood pressure is currently on average 125/75.

as the title says, this video only explains the process of inflating the cuff. the video explanation of actually finding the systolic and diastolic pressures is different. and if you look on the right side of your screen you will see under “more from expertvillage” a lot of other videos about assessing blood pressure, including the one where he teaches you how to find systolic and diastolic bp.
