Heart
Disease has a serious impact on the lives of the residents of York
Region, and indeed, all Canadians. Given its social, emotional and
economic costs, we all need to be more aware of the factors that contribute
to heart disease and the steps we can take to prevent it.
In many cases, heart disease can be prevented through lifestyle changes.
Risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure and high cholesterol
are tied closely to what we eat, the amount of exercise we get, how
we deal with stress and whether or not we smoke. heartyparty.com has
information on steps you can take in each of these areas in order
to get the most out of life.
First, a word of advice for anyone who’s planning to make changes
in lifestyle – don’t try to do it all at once! Changing
habits can be hard, so taking on too many changes at the same time
often doesn’t work. Pick the one lifestyle change you think is
most important and work on that until you feel comfortable. When you’re
satisfied that you’ve incorporated that change into your day-to-day
life, then consider changing something else.
Also, before undertaking lifestyle changes, heartyparty.com recommends
that you consult with a Health Care Professional.
