R Meida News Ludhiana, May 20

On the occasion of World Hypertension Day, Fortis Hospital Ludhiana, in association with Patanjali Yog Group Ludhiana, organised a special community Zumba and fitness awareness session at Rakh Bagh from 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM to encourage healthier lifestyles and raise awareness about hypertension and cardiovascular health. The initiative witnessed participation from over 100 individuals, including doctors, hospital staff, fitness enthusiasts, and members of the public participated in the energetic morning Zumba session. The purpose was to spread awareness about the importance of maintaining healthy blood pressure levels and reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications. Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is often referred to as a “silent killer” as it may remain undetected for years while significantly increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and other serious health complications. Through this initiative, Fortis Hospital Ludhiana aimed to encourage people to adopt healthier habits, including regular exercise, stress management, balanced nutrition, and timely health screenings.
