An electrocardiogram (or an ECG) is a test that records the electrical signals passing through your heart. It’s a non-invasive test to monitor your heart’s health and quickly detect any problems with your heart.

Monitoring your uric acid levels regularly can help to prevent these painful medical conditions with early intervention,...

How to read your Blood Pressure

Blood pressure is measured using two numbers: Systolic blood pressure (the first or upper number): Measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats. Diastolic blood pressure (the second or lower number): Measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart rests between beats. For example, if the measurement reads 120 Systolic and 80 Diastolic, the reading would be "120/80 mmHg".
