Doctor Oz gave a list of 5 lifesaving numbers that you must know, called the “Know Your 5″ list. Here are the 5 numbers that Dr Oz said that we should all know, along with the numbers we should be aiming for in each measurement. Dr Oz is also giving away the “Know Your 5″ test for free to the first 5,000 people who register for the test! 
Know Your 5: Lifesaving Numbers
Blood Pressure – If you have high blood pressure, you can have strokes which is where an area of your brain bleeds and dies. This happens because as your heart struggles to pump blood, it pumps harder, and blood vessels can pop and your blood can come out. You can test your blood pressure at a pharmacy, with a test at home, or you can have it checked at your doctor’s office. The top number (the first number) should not be over 140, otherwise Dr Oz said you should see your doctor!
Waist Size – Measure between your hip bone and your rib cage and suck in… I had no idea that you could suck in when you measure your waist size!!! Good to know 
… If your waist size is over 35″, then your chance of other health problems increases dramatically. So you want your waist to be under 35″ for women.
Weight – Dr Oz starts to get worried if women weigh over 175 pounds, because on average women are about 5’4″.
Cholesterol – A major factor for cardiovascular disease is cholesterol. HDL needs to be above 50 – this is your healthy cholesterol. LDL needs to be less than 100 – this is your bad cholesterol.
Fasting Blood Sugar – You can help determine your risk for diabetes by looking at your fasting blood sugar, which should be below 100. If your fasting blood sugar is too high, you can damage blood vessels, have circulation problems, blurred vision, and a whole bunch of problems with other organs.
To sign-up to be one of the 5000 people to get the free Know Your 5 test, go here at 3pm EST tonight! If you are not one of the first 5,000 people, Dr Oz said you will still get a very large discount on the test.
