How to avoid heart disease and stroke

How to avoid heart disease and stroke



In the past death rate from heart disorders and stroke was very high. Now it’s very low but still getting heart diseases just as often. The reason behind it is that the risk factors like diabetes and obesity have become very common.

The modern technology and research in the field of medicines have brought this rate down. It is far better to avoid such problems than to treat them.

Here I am giving you some quick tips to follow that will help you to avoid heart disorders.

1. Take a high-fiber breakfast

In a recent study, researchers found that women who ate 23 grams of fiber a day were 23 percent less likely to have heart diseases than those who consumed only 11 grams of fiber. In men, a high-fiber diet minimized the chances of a heart attack by 36 percent.

 2. Eat fish on regular base

A recent study found that women who ate fish on regular base were one-third less likely to have a heart attack. Other studies show similar benefits for men. Another major study found regular fish consumption reduced the risk of atrial fibrillation — rapid, irregular heartbeat — a major cause of sudden death.

3. Drink more tea

Black or green, it doesn’t matter. At least, that’s the result of a recent study that found only 2.4 percent of 5,000 healthy persons who drank two or more cups of tea a day had a heart attack within six years, compared with 4.1 percent of those who never drank tea. Another major analysis of 17 studies on tea drinkers found three cups a day could lower the risk of a heart attack by 11 percent.

4. Sprinkle ground flaxseed on your cereal or yogurt every day

This way you’ll be getting omega-3 fatty acids, healthy fats that recent studies find help to prevent heart diseases and lower the danger of dying suddenly from heart rhythm abnormalities.

5. Take a small tablet of aspirin daily

A recent research found that using aspirin you are reducing the risk of heart disease by nearly a third in people who have never had a heart attack or stroke but who were at increased risk. It reduces the risk of clot formation.

6. Eat cherries daily

A recent study found that the anthocyanins that give cherries their scarlet color also work to lower levels of uric acid in the blood that can increase the risk of heart disorders.

7. Eat an orange daily

Take a glass of orange juice. Oranges, as you know, are a great source of vitamin C. Studies suggest diets high in vitamin C may cut the risk of stroke, especially if you smoke.

8. Drink a lot of water

A recent study found that women who drank more than five glasses of water a day were half as likely to die from a heart attack as those who drank less than two. This is likely due to the fact that maintaining good hydration keeps blood flowing well; dehydration can cause slow blood flow and increase the risk of clots forming.

9. Cook with ginger or turmeric

Both of these have anti-inflammatory properties, and inflammation is a major contributor to heart disease.

10. Take vitamin B complex daily

A recent study found that the level of homocysteine, a substance linked to an increased risk of heart disease, were 40 percent lower in those who took the vitamins.

11. Go to urinate when you feel the urge

A recent research found that a full bladder speeds up your heart rate and puts added stress on coronary arteries, triggering them to contract, which could lead to a heart attack in people who are vulnerable.

12. Just do the basics

Recent studies found that nearly everyone who dies of cardiac disorders, including heart attacks, had at least one or more of the conventional risk factors, such as smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol levels.
