Description
Want a longer, healthier, happier life? Start with a healthy, happy heart. Mayo Clinic cardiologists provide simple advice and actionable steps to help you lower your cardiovascular risk at any age and enjoy living well.
Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States. Despite the latest advances in treatment, when it comes to your heart, top experts agree: prevention is the best medicine. The good news is that itβs never too late β or too early β to lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. And it doesnβt have to be complicated.
Where do you start? Discover the keys to maximising your heart health with this user-friendly manual. Based on the latest research and decades of clinical experience from 30+ cardiologists and other experts at the world-renowned Mayo Clinic, this book encourages a proactive, holistic approach that focuses on making positive changes before the appearance of heart disease. It breaks down the latest expertise β and how to tell fact from fiction β on key factors such as nutrition, exercise, stress management, the newest medications and even how sleep affects heart health. Full-colour illustrations and infographics, and an airy design with text call-outs, help create an appealing, trade-oriented reading experience.
Included in the book are answers to many common questions, such as:
- Whatβs the difference between 'good' and 'bad' cholesterol?
- Will Ozempic really benefit my heart?
- Should I test my blood pressure at home?
- Is red wine good for me?
- What's the best type of exercise for the heart?
- Are seed oils really bad for health?
- What should I make of headlines about microplastics and heart health?
- What are the biggest risk factors for heart disease?
In addition, the book offers simple steps you can put into action today, backed by compelling research that small changes really do add up. It even includes 20 recipes for heart-healthy meals to help make dietary changes easy and delicious. By focusing on preventive, everyday steps, Mayo Clinic Guide to a Healthy, Happy Heart shows that better heart health β and all its benefits β is within everyoneβs reach.
