Doctors call main way to prevent cardiovascular diseases

The primary way to prevent cardiovascular diseases is the proper lifestyle, emphasized the Ministry of Health of Bashkiria.

It includes daily moderate physical activity. Doctors say approximately 30 minutes of walking, biking, or swimming will be enough.

Equally important is proper nutrition. Experts recommend giving up frequent consumption of saturated fats, fast carbohydrates and advise eating more fresh vegetables and fruits.

It is also essential to know that salt attracts water to itself. Because of this, the blood volume in the vessels increases, and the pressure rises.

If you want to avoid heart problems, control your weight. Calculate your body mass index and try to stick to this norm.

“Give up alcohol and smoking. There are no useful doses of nicotine or alcohol that would not bring harm,” doctors strongly advise.

And further. If you feel that your health is not all right - do not self-medicate. Go to the doctor.

“It is important to follow the prescribed treatment exactly. If you have been prescribed a certain dose of medicine, you do not need to change or ignore it,” concluded the Ministry of Health of Bashkiria.
