Face masks with smiles
February 2021. Psychology professionals indicate that smiling triggers the release of endorphins in the body, which produces a decrease in stress levels. Aware of this benefit, we took advantage of protective masks to print a big smile on them. “A mask with a smile has many benefits, such as reducing the stress load on people, as it generates a positive reaction. At this moment, many people are in a very tense mood, so seeing people with smiles will have a mirror effect and will improve the other person’s attitude,” Paul Zamora, psychologist and laughter therapist, told us. The use of masks with smiles is now part of the uniform for Epanos. With them, you reflect a happy mood, which positively impacts our customers, who perceive good service in our stores. “Laughter is contagious, so it can help people have positive emotions, reduce anxiety, and help improve interpersonal relationships. It is important to keep in mind that smiles open doors to create empathy and unity between people,” added Zamora. It is also a different, appropriate, and fun way to stay protected, not only against diseases but also against stress. Remember to always wear your mask to protect yourself and spread happiness to others! Main page Was this article useful? Yes No

Let's prevent high blood pressure
High blood pressure, or hypertension, causes progressive damage over the years if left uncontrolled. Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of our arteries. Generally, pressure is measured using two numbers, the systolic and the diastolic, and is expressed in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). For example, 120/80 mm Hg. This means a systolic pressure of 120 and a diastolic pressure of 80. We would have high blood pressure if the readings show that the systolic pressure is greater than 130 mm Hg or the diastolic pressure is 80 mm Hg or higher. High blood pressure, or arterial hypertension, causes progressive damage over the years; if left uncontrolled, it can lead to a stroke, heart attack, impaired kidney function, memory loss, personality changes, concentration problems, irritability, or progressive loss of consciousness. It can also cause complications during pregnancy (preeclampsia or eclampsia). To prevent arterial hypertension, there are three basic recommendations: 1. Do not smoke 2. Maintain a healthy weight with a low-fat diet 3. Exercise Main page Was this article helpful? Yes No
