Cardiovascular problems are common today. Ultra-processed foods, smoking, and alcohol increase risk.
Cardiovascular health includes the heart and blood vessels. Cardiovascular disease covers coronary heart disease, stroke, heart failure, arrhythmias, and valve issues. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes are major risk factors.
Following a heart-healthy diet and regular exercise is essential. A dietitian for heart health can help you choose low-sodium, high-fiber foods to lower the risk of coronary artery disease and stroke.
Dt. Deepak Khera will tailor a cardiac diet plan to your lifestyle and medical history. Expect plenty of vegetables and fruits, and foods lower in cholesterol, salt, and sodium, alongside regular activity.
