Heart Healthy Habits
As an orthopedic practice, we are always emphasizing the importance of living a healthy and active lifestyle. This has great benefits for your bones, muscles and tendons – but wouldn’t be possible without a strong and healthy heart. February marks the beginning of American Heart Month, and a great opportunity to remind our friends and family to prioritize heart-healthy habits.
Here are the most important ways to keep your heart healthy:
- Know your health risks
- Choose heart-healthy foods
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Manage stress
- Get regular physical activity
- Quit smoking
- Get good-quality sleep
