Better Numbers Blog Series - Healthy Habits for a Healthy Heart: Celebrate American Heart Month with Qardio & 120/Life

Welcome to the next part of our series on managing hypertension and different ways to achieve healthy blood pressure levels. February is American Heart Month, a time to raise awareness about heart health and how our lifestyle choices impact our cardiovascular health. If you're one of the many people who struggle with high blood pressure, use this time to focus on improving your heart health.

One of the key ways to do this is by adopting a heart-healthy diet. In our previous blog post, we discussed the significance of including heart-healthy nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, and fiber in your diet and monitoring your sodium intake.

• Get Adequate Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of restful sleep every night to help lower stress levels and promote heart health.
• Manage Stress: Chronic stress can increase blood pressure, so it's crucial to find ways to relieve stress, such as through meditation, exercise, or counseling.
• Exercise Regularly: Regular physical activity can help lower blood pressure and improve heart health. Try to do at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity like brisk walking five days a week.
• Maintain a Healthy Weight: Excess weight can contribute to high blood pressure, so it's important to maintain a healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise.
