Eat Healthy
A nutritious diet is the first and foremost step for not only a healthy heart but a healthy self. Food with excess fat, cholesterol, or unmeasured nutrients can lead to obesity, nutritional deficiencies or even blocked arteries!
-
Be Active
We eat food to get energy. Our body uses the nutrients from the food to create energy that helps us get through our work all day. Now if we don’t use this energy to its optimum level, or keep lazing around, the system gets messed up. Most of the work now-a-days requires lesser physical activity and has made us sedentary. When our body isn’t able to perform how it is supposed to, it invites diseases. Something seeming as small as lethargy or being overweight, can turn into fatal diseases. Not being active in fact is one of the main causes that can lead to a heart disease.
-
Quit Smoking
You know that smoking can cause cancer. But what you didn’t know is that nicotine from cigarettes and tobacco is one of the worst things for your heart too! If you want to live a healthy life, and have a healthy heart- Quit today. The longer you keep smoking, the worse your heart health becomes.
-
Beat Stress
In the hustle bustle of our busy lives, it is impossible to avoid stress. However, when this stress becomes too much, it can be very dangerous for your heart. It can lead to depression, high BP, binge eating, smoking, drinking and other factors which are harmful for your heart.

Get A Heart Check
No one knows it better than the doctor! It is possible that sometimes you are taking all the preventive measures you know and still fall ill.

Talk to your doctor about the risks and measures you can take, to keep a check those risks.
