About 600,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year. That's 1 in every 4 deaths. While most people think they don't need to worry about heart disease until later on in life, the truth is, it's never too early to start taking your heart health seriously. No matter your age, making smart choices now will pay off for the rest of your life.
Choose a heart-healthy diet. Eating certain foods can increase or decrease your chance of heart disease. Knowing which foods to pick and which to limit is a great place to start. You’d better end your unhealthy eating habit and it may low the risk of heart disease.
Aim for 30 minutes of physical activity five times a week. One way to help manage stress is by exercising, and this will help prevent heart disease, too. While exercise five times a week may seem daunting, it's important to remember that physical activity includes anything that causes your body to burn calories. From simply climbing the stairs, to running, swimming or biking, any activity is better than no activity at all.
Know your family history. Did anyone in your family ever suffer from a heart attack? When it comes to understanding your own risk, knowing your family's history can help you avoid heart problems in the future. Ask your grandparents, parents and siblings if they've suffered from heart disease in the past, and if so, find out when.
It's never too early — or too late — to work toward a healthier heart and lifestyle. Your heart will love the result.
