Heart Health Month: Easy Ways to Love Your Heart

February is Heart Health Month—the perfect time to focus on the organ that works tirelessly for you. Small, consistent actions can make a big difference in protecting your heart.

Why Heart Health Matters

Heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, yet many risk factors like high cholesterol, hypertension, and diabetes are preventable. Taking care of your heart is one of the best investments in your health.

5 Heart-Healthy Practices:

1. Eat for Your Heart: Prioritize omega-3-rich foods (like salmon), fiber (like oats), and antioxidants (like berries). Limit processed snacks and trans fats.

   
   

2. Get Moving: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise weekly. Activities like dancing or brisk walking can boost cardiovascular health.

   
   

3. Manage Stress: Chronic stress affects heart health. Try yoga, deep breathing, or mindfulness to relax.

   
   

4. Know Your Numbers: Regularly check blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose levels. Knowledge is power.

   
   

5. Quit Smoking: If you smoke, quitting is the single most effective step to protect your heart.

Your heart deserves care and attention. Implement these steps to show your heart some love this month and beyond.

Pro Tip: Swap salt for herbs and spices to reduce sodium without sacrificing flavor.
