This underlines the need to further motivate normotensive patients to maintain their normotension. The results show that the combination of individual written education and lifestyle interventions are an effective tool for the public health sector to combat hypertension. In our participants, lifestyle interventions have a significant impact on BP change. It should be noted critically that there are still ...
