Maintain Healthy Heart
If you’re concerned about your heart health and want to stay healthy, you can take some simple steps for maintaining a healthy heart:
Improve your diet
A healthy diet can help to reduce the symptoms of many heart conditions including heart disease, heart attack and stroke. Try to fill up on fruit and vegetables to get the most nutrition for a healthy heart.
Quit smoking
It is very important to quit smoking as smoking is a definite risk factor for all types of cardiovascular diseases particularly coronary artery disease and stroke.
Exercise regularly
Regular exercise is an important way to lower your risk of heart disease. By exercising for as little as 30 minutes most days, you can lose weight and lower your blood pressure which will help to keep your heart healthy.
Eat more fish
Findings suggest that unsaturated fats in fish can help protect against abnormal heart rhythms, making fish a valuable choice for a heart healthy diet.
Switch your choice of chocolate
Making the simple switch from milk chocolate to dark chocolate can help you to protect your heart. Studies show that, unlike milk chocolate, dark chocolate can improve health and lower the risk of heart disease.
Limit your alcohol intake
Everyone enjoys a drink from time to time but as a diuretic, alcohol will make you urinate more frequently which increases the risk of dehydration. Alcohol can also dilate blood vessels which may lower your blood pressure, putting more strain on your heart. Alcohol is the most potent trigger of atrial fibrillation, the commonest heart rhythm disorder.
Avoid salty food
Eating too much salt can cause high blood pressure which can increase your heart disease. Ideally you need to limit your salt intake to less than 2.4 grams per day, which means reading food labels closely and limiting the amount of additional salt you add to your food.
Get tested for Diabetes
It’s important to know if you are diabetic as, is left untreated, diabetes can damage your artery walls and contribute to heart disease.
Find ways to enjoy staying fit
Staying fit and healthy is a great way to keep your heart healthy and a great way to stay motivated with exercising is to choose activities that combine exercise and socialising such as Pilates, yoga, dancing or cycling.
