Cardio-Tipps
1. Stay active and exercise regularly
Get at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity most days of the week. Cardiovascular exercise such as walking, swimming and cycling strengthens the heart, improves blood flow and reduces the risk of heart disease. Even simple activities such as climbing stairs or brisk walking can make a big difference.
2. Eat a heart-healthy diet
Eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. Consume heart-friendly fats such as omega-3 fatty acids found in fish (salmon, mackerel) and nuts. Limit your consumption of processed foods, saturated fats and added sugars. A healthy diet helps control cholesterol, blood pressure and weight – all crucial for a healthy heart.
3. Manage stress
Chronic stress can put a strain on your heart. Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation or yoga to manage stress. Take time for yourself and engage in hobbies you enjoy to reduce stress and promote heart health.
4. Check your blood pressure regularly
High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease. Check your blood pressure regularly and if it’s high, work with your doctor to manage it with lifestyle changes or medications. Try to keep your blood pressure below 120/80 mmHg for optimal heart health.
