Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. While certain risk factors—such as age and family history—cannot be changed, there are many practical steps you can take to keep your heart healthy and reduce your overall risk.

How to Maintain a Healthy Heart
Here are seven simple ways to protect your heart health:
1. Avoid Smoking and Secondhand Smoke
Quitting smoking is one of the most powerful ways to improve heart health. The chemicals in cigarettes damage blood vessels and force the heart to work harder. Even if you don’t smoke, avoid exposure to secondhand smoke. The good news: your heart disease risk begins to decrease within just 24 hours after quitting.
2. Stay Active for at Least 30 Minutes a Day
Regular physical activity helps maintain a healthy weight, lowers blood pressure, and stabilizes blood sugar—three key factors for heart health. Start with simple activities like brisk walking, taking the stairs, gardening, or walking your pet. Consistency is what matters most.
3. Eat Heart-Healthy Foods
A balanced diet plays a major role in maintaining heart health. Prioritize:
- Fruits and vegetables
- Fish and lean meats
- Nuts and legumes
- Low-fat dairy products
- Whole grains
- Healthy fats such as avocado and olive oil
Limit foods high in salt, sugar, saturated fat, fried foods, and processed products.
4. Maintain a Healthy Weight
Excess weight—especially around the abdomen—increases the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Losing just 3–5% of your body weight can significantly improve blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
5. Get Enough Sleep
Not getting enough sleep can lead to high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and even heart attacks. Adults should aim for at least seven hours of sleep each night. If you often feel tired during the day or snore loudly, get checked for possible sleep apnea.
6. Manage Stress in Healthy Ways
Chronic stress can elevate blood pressure and trigger unhealthy habits like overeating, alcohol consumption, or smoking. Try incorporating exercise, meditation, relaxation breathing, or yoga to help calm your mind and body.
7. Get Regular Health Screenings
Routine checks for blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar are crucial for early detection of heart-related issues. Many people are unaware of abnormal results until the condition becomes serious. If your numbers are high, your doctor can help create the right treatment plan.
