What most people do care about is leading a stress free life.
What they forget though is to protect their hearts.
For instance, when girls develop a lump on their breasts, they call a doctor, and have it checked straightaway.
Next to these breasts is a vital organ: the heart, whose health is often ignored.
You need to pay attention to your heart just as you do to your breasts.
Girls need to remember that the risk of succumbing to a heart disease is as high as that of breast cancer.
You become more vulnerable to it as you advance in age.
What puts your heart at risk? The answer is simple - abusive lifestyle habits which tend to have profound effects on your weight, cholesterol levels, blood pressure rate and stress levels.
The good news is that you can still undo some of effects of the heart-harmful habits you indulged in if you start taking the right steps now.
Start by keeping away from smoky surroundings.
Exposure to secondhand smoke in recreation centers like clubs can potentially be harmful to your body.
It can put your arteries at risk by narrowing them overtime.
Its effects can be instant.
A couple of minutes of exposure to this smoke have about the same effect on your blood vessels as if you were actually smoking.
Look for monosaturated fat when it comes to diet.
It helps minimize the levels of harmful cholesterol which are responsible for clogging the arteries and eventually triggering a heart attack.
You can get monosaturated fat in peanut butter, nuts, fatty fish, and avocado.
Ensure that you keep away from saturated and trans fats.
They have been proved to have the ability of raising the levels of bad cholesterol.
Short, intense exercises can be very helpful.
Heart-pumping activity is good for reducing the risk of heart disease because it lowers blood pressure and unhealthy cholesterol levels.
It also helps keep your weight and body mass index in a healthy range.
Specialists however suggest that short bursts of intense cardiovascular sessions punctuated by a few minutes of lower-intensity exercise can be more effective than hours of moderate jogging.
You should therefore consider heavy running or doing jumping jacks during your free time.
If possible, include these in your current exercise regimen.
You should be aware of your limits.
Exerting yourself too hard with work and responsibilities pummels your body with adrenaline and cortisol.
An uncontrolled level of these hormones escalates your blood pressure rate, which overtime hardens your arteries.
Its recommended that you take a break, share some beautiful moments with your loved ones to have your body and mind decompress.
You could also go for a walk, take a warm bath to reduce the circulation of these harmful elements in your system.
Keep a positive mindset at all the time.
You reduce the chances of you suffering from a heart disease if you are always happy, and optimistic about things.
Indulge yourself in positively up building behavior like eating healthy, exercising and fostering a closer relationships with the people around you.
The more you have people who care about your around you, the more the number of wonderful moments you will share.
