Tips for Preventing Heart Disease
For preventing heart disease you should check your numbers, eat a healthy diet, get enough physical activity, avoid smoking, maintain a healthy weight, and limit alcohol use.
Ann DeVelasco, Registered Nurse with Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute, notes it is very important to take charge of your own heart health. She also shares her experience: "I can only say that I have had a wonderful life before and since my heart attack. I think a lot of it is due to the fact that I have become very proactive in trying to help others."
