Your Guide to a Heart-Healthy Life

A Healthy Heart Starts with You

Heart disease is largely preventable. Small, consistent changes in your lifestyle can have a huge impact.

Daily Habits for a Stronger Heart:

• Nutrition: Eat more fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Limit saturated fat, salt, and sugar.

• Exercise: Aim for 150 minutes of moderate activity per week.

• Stress Management: Practice relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing.

• Sleep: Aim for 7–8 hours of quality sleep nightly.

• No Smoking: Smoking damages arteries and raises blood pressure.

• Regular Checkups: Get your heart, BP, blood sugar, and cholesterol checked yearly.

Tools That Help:

• Heart rate monitors or smartwatches

• Food tracking apps

• Blood pressure monitors at home

Conclusion: Prevention is always better than cure. Start making healthy choices today—and encourage your family to join you.
