Love Your Heart

🔴 Seven ways to love your heart

✅ 1. Get active.

It doesn’t have to cost a thing…try brisk walking, swimming, cycling, putting in a workout video, shooting some hoops or dancing with your kids.

✅ 2. Eat better.

Nutrient-packed foods are a powerful weapon against heart disease.

Heart-healthy (and tasty!) choices abound, like low-fat dairy, whole grains, poultry and fish, nuts and legumes, and lots of fruits and veggies.

✅ 3. Lose weight.

Extra body fat, and a waist measurement over 35 inches for women and 40 inches for men, can up your risk for heart disease. Body mass index (BMI) is a helpful tool to check if you’re at a healthy weight.

A high BMI can mean a higher risk for a number of medical conditions.

✅ 4. Stop smoking.

No matter how long you’ve smoked, quitting will do your heart, lungs, blood vessels and bones good!

✅ 5. Manage blood pressure.

High blood pressure takes the heart work harder and injures arteries.

The “silent killer” can lead to heart attack, stroke or kidney disease. It has no signs, so have your blood pressure checked regularly.

Ask your doctor how regular exercise and a healthy diet can help lower your blood pressure.

✅ 6. Control cholesterol.

High cholesterol causes plaque to build up in your arteries, and as cholesterol levels rise, so does your heart risk.

Eating healthy and staying active can help lower your cholesterol level.

✅ 7. Reduce blood sugar.

Complications of diabetes can include heart attack and stroke, and over time high levels of blood sugar can add to your risk.

Follow your doctor’s advice about medications and healthy food choices.

🔴 What is the relationship between heart and kidney?

✅ The heart pumps blood filled with oxygen through all parts of your body, including the kidneys.

✅ The kidneys clean the blood, removing waste products and extra water. Without the kidneys, your blood would have too much waste and water.

❌ Diseases in the kidneys can affect the heart. It is common for people with chronic kidney disease or end-stage kidney disease to develop heart disease, including heart attack or heart failure.
