How To Prevent A Heart Attack
Easy steps to protect your heart and stay strong
A heart attack can be scary. But the good news?
Most heart attacks can be prevented.
You don’t need to wait until something goes wrong. You can start taking care of your heart today.
What Is a Heart Attack?
Your heart needs blood to stay strong.
A heart attack happens when blood can’t get to the heart.
This is usually caused by fat and plaque blocking your blood vessels.
When the heart doesn’t get enough blood, it can get hurt. That’s a heart attack.
Simple Ways to Lower Your Risk
1. Check Your Health Numbers
Ask your doctor to check your:
- Blood pressure
- Blood sugar
- Cholesterol (HDL and LDL)
- Special labs like Apo B or lipoprotein(a)
- LDL particle size and number
These numbers help tell you if your heart is at risk.
2. Eat Healthy Foods
What you eat matters. Try this:
- Eat more vegetables, fruits, fish, nuts, and olive oil
- Eat less sugar, fried foods, and packaged snacks
- Drink water instead of soda
3. Move Your Body
Exercise helps your heart stay strong.
- Walk, swim, stretch, or dance
- Try to move for 30 minutes a day
4. Sleep Enough
Your heart needs rest too.
- Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night
- Make your bedroom quiet and dark
5. Calm Your Stress
Too much stress is bad for your heart.
- Try deep breathing
- Go outside for fresh air
- Talk to someone you trust
6. Know Your Family History
If heart disease runs in your family, tell your doctor.
You may need to check your heart earlier than others.
7. Don’t Smoke
Smoking hurts your heart and blood vessels.
If you smoke, ask your doctor for help quitting.
