Your
good heart has an enemy named as atherosclerosis. It occurs when our
blood vessels harden after fat, calcium and cholesterol build up inside
them. It decreases our body blood flow and increases the risk of stroke,
heart diseases and other severe health conditions. This disease usually
causes no symptoms until middle or older age (especially age over 40).
Once the narrowing of blood vessels becomes severe, it restricts blood
pain and cause serious pain.
What you can do to stay away from atherosclerosis?
Healthy Diet
Your
first step to prevent atherosclerosis is to follow a healthy diet
chart. Eat food items that are low in cholesterol and saturated fat.
Reduce the amount of eggs, meat, milk and other dairy products in your
diet. Check the food label of the product to find the amount of
saturated fat in that product. Add fresh fruits, green vegetables, lean
meat, fish and whole grain foods (Oats and Whole wheat) to your daily
food chart. Use vegetable oils such as canola oil and olive oil instead
of saturated fats like butter.
Daily Exercise
Exercise
is another key factor to stop atherosclerosis. Regularly perform plenty
of exercise. Aerobic exercise reduces the amount of blood fat and
cholesterol inside body which ultimately lowers your chances of
atherosclerosis. Don’t work out like a bodybuilder, start slowly and
work up to 40 minutes- 1 hour for 2 times daily. Take your doctor’s
advice about your exercise program to know what kinds of exercises are
right for you.
Say “NO” to Smoking
Regular
smoking damages our artery walls which causes atherosclerosis. It also
increases the risk of high blood pressure and diabetes which also leads
us to atherosclerosis. That’s why QUIT SMOKING. Talk with your doctor for medications and other programs to help quitting smoke.
Regular Checkups and Diabetes
Research
says that people who have diabetes develop atherosclerosis more quickly
than others. If you have diabetes, then get regular checkups to know
your blood sugar level, cholesterol level and blood pressure. All these
factors play a critical role to increase or decrease atherosclerosis.
