Tips to Prevent Heart Disease

1. Mind what you eat: Food is the fuel :

   Not just for your body, but as scientific studies have shown, for the mind as well. The ancient adage -“you are what you eat" is a time-tested principle that has shown the way for inner peace and overall cardiac health. Maintaining a careful watch over your intake of food and eating a nutritious, low fat diet helps in sustaining your cardiac health at all times.

2. Cultivate the positive in your life:

   Positive, serene and blissful emotions make your aura profoundly positive and induce vitality and longevity. Listening to relaxing music and staying in touch with natural vigor at all times is very essential for this.

3. Delete stress from your life:

   Ayurveda teaches us the importance of avoiding stress at all times. Although minimal stress can't be avoided always, yet, when stress becomes chronic, it sends ringing bells for cardiac health. Practicing meditation has been proven to be a barricade against stress. It leads to lowering of blood pressure and unclogs the arteries and thus overhauls the entire cardio-vascular health.

4. Exercise regularly:

   Ayurveda teaches the importance of regular physical exercise and how it helps in maintaining ideal cardiac health. Excessively strenuous exercises are not required, however and key lies in following a balanced regimen. A light jog or brisk walk early in the morning can rev up your heart health and can boost your metabolism. Aerobic exercises and Yoga are extremely beneficial as they offer a direct positive impact on the way blood is circulated and pumped by the heart.

5. Detoxify your body regularly:

   Removal of the toxic matter that builds up in the blood because of physiological processes is very important. Ayurveda lays emphasis on importance of healthy lifestyle, proper sleep, eating a diet rich in fiber and low in fats etc. All these lifestyle choices improve body's immunity against cardiac and other diseases as well.
