Easy steps to improve your heart health
Tips to help keep your heart strong:
Eat healthy fats
Incorporate healthy fats into your diet and avoid trans fats. Trans fats increase your risk of developing heart disease or having a stroke.
Read food labels to avoid trans fats in your diet.
Practice good dental hygiene
Dental health often indicates your overall health, including your heart. People with gum disease often have the same risk factors for heart disease.
Floss and brush your teeth daily to avoid gum disease.
Get enough sleep
Sleep is essential to keeping your heart healthy and lowering your risk of heart disease. Try to get seven to eight hours of sleep most nights.
Stay active
Move your body throughout the day to lower your risk of a blood clot or heart disease. Exercise is key to keeping your heart and body healthy.
Set up regular appointments with your provider. Your provider will help you choose the lifestyle habits that work best for your heart health.
