Knowing, monitoring, and controlling your ABCs—A1C, blood pressure, and cholesterol—is essential to preventing heart disease.
●"A" stands for "A1C" – A1C is a blood test that shows what your average blood sugar level has been during the last few months.
●"B" stands for "blood pressure" – controlling your blood pressure is just as important as controlling your blood sugar. High blood pressure puts you at risk for heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease.
●"C" stands for "cholesterol" – Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in the blood. High cholesterol is another factor that increases your risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other serious problems.
