According to the American College of Cardiology, a healthy lifestyle can lower your risk of heart disease and can slow the progression if you already have heart disease.
The ACC’s recommendations include:
- Engage in physical activity 30 minutes a day five days a week to increase circulation in the body
- Choose more whole foods like fruits and vegetables, lean sources of protein including chicken, turkey and fish and good mono and saturated fats like olive oil, nuts and avocados
- Work with your doctor to get your numbers in check: blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar
These strategies can not only improve your quality of life, but longevity as well.
