Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. In fact, one American will have a coronary event about every 25, and about one every minute will die from one. However, you can avoid a heart condition, or perhaps even reveres one, by simply living a healthy lifestyle. If you need a cardiologist, contact Health Travel Guides toll free at 866-978-2573 and learn about our international network of cardiologists.

  1. 1

    Don't smoke

    Smoking is one of the biggest risk factors for developing heart disease. The chemicals in cigarettes damage your heart and blood vessels, which leads to a narrowing of the arteries, which can eventually lead to a heart attack. Visit www.healthtravelguides.com/MoreProcedures/Cardiology.
  3. 2

    Get enough exercise

    Experts recommend everyone get between 30-60 minutes of moderately exercise daily. If that seems un-doable, don’t give up hope. Even brief 10 minute intervals help keep your heart pumping. Call and talk to a medical case manager today, 866-978-2573.

    Eat Well

    Eating a diet full of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, fish and low-fat dairy products, while limiting fat, is proven to help protect your heart.

    Know your cholesterol levels

    Know your numbers. There are two main type of cholesterol, and the good (HDL) and the band (LDL). Generally, you want your LDL low and your HDL high. If your LDL is high, find out why, and what you can do to bring it down. Chat with a medical case manager today: healthtravelguides.custhelp.com/ci/documents/detail/2/1005.
  7. 5

    Manage your weight

    As most people age, the tendency is to gain weight a few pounds every year. It may not seem like much at the time, but it can really add up over the course of a decade. Extra weight can lead to conditions that increase your chances of heart problems — high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. Visit www.healthtravelguides.com.
