February is National Heart Healthy Month, and it's the perfect time to start taking care of your heart! It all began in 1963 when President Lyndon B. Johnson declared the first "Heart Disease Control Week," and since then, there has been an ongoing effort to promote awareness of heart health. With this special month, we can take advantage of our opportunity to learn more about how we can live a healthier lifestyle and reduce our risk of cardiovascular disease. So let's get started on improving our hearts for a better tomorrow!
Make sure to make heart-healthy meals for your family during National Heart Healthy Month. Incorporate lean proteins, whole grains, and lots of fruits and vegetables into your diet to promote a healthier heart.
Get out of the house and go for a walk! Walking is an easy way to get some physical activity in your life and is great exercise for your heart. Plus, it can be a great way to spend time with family or friends.
If you're looking for something a little more intense than walking, why not try a new exercise? Look for a local gym or fitness studio near you and try out some new classes like yoga, swimming, or kickboxing - all of which are great for your heart.
Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for your heart health. National Heart Healthy Month is the perfect time to take the plunge and quit smoking for good.
Make sure to get your cholesterol checked during National Heart Healthy Month. High cholesterol can lead to serious health problems, so it's important to stay on top of it.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Taking steps to ensure your heart health can drastically reduce the risk of developing heart conditions and help you live a longer, healthier life.
Making small changes such as eating more fruits and vegetables, exercising regularly and quitting smoking can significantly improve heart health. During Heart Health Month, people are encouraged to adopt these healthy habits and make them a part of their day to day routines.
Raising awareness about the importance of heart health leads to better decisions that can have long lasting impacts on our lives. National Heart Month serves as an important reminder to take care of our hearts so that we can avoid future illnesses or complications down the road.
