By Hospital Administrator • 25 Oct 2026 • 111 words
Your heart works around the clock — return the favour with these ten simple habits.
1. Walk 30 minutes a day. Brisk walking lowers blood pressure and LDL cholesterol.
2. Eat the rainbow: five servings of fruit and vegetables daily.
3. Cut added sugar to under 25 g a day.
4. Sleep 7–8 hours; poor sleep raises cardiac risk by 30%.
5. Manage stress with breathing exercises or meditation.
6. Quit smoking — risk drops within weeks of quitting.
7. Limit alcohol.
8. Monitor BP and weight monthly.
9. Get an annual lipid profile after age 30.
10. Know the warning signs: chest pain, breathlessness, radiating jaw or arm pain — never ignore them.
