Title: Prevent Heart Disease and Live a Longer Life with These Tips
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. But did you know that many cases of heart disease can be prevented? In this podcast episode, Dr. Michael Twyman, a cardiologist, shares his knowledge on how to prevent heart attacks and improve your overall cardiovascular health. Here are some tips you can follow to prevent heart disease and live a longer life.
Optimize Your Lifestyle
One of the best things you can do to prevent heart disease is to optimize your lifestyle. Dr. Twyman recommends eating a diet rich in whole, unprocessed foods to ensure you get all the nutrients you need for healthy heart function. He also advises against smoking and drinking in excess, which are both known to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Additionally, regular exercise is crucial for maintaining good heart health. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day, such as brisk walking.
Optimize Your Mitochondria
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of your cells and play an important role in heart function. Dr. Twyman suggests optimizing your mitochondria to improve your overall health and longevity. One way to do this is by consuming healthy fats, such as those found in avocados and nuts, which can help fuel your mitochondria. Taking supplements like CoQ10 can also support healthy mitochondrial function.
Preventative Work is Critical
Dr. Twyman laments that doctors don’t do enough preventative work when it comes to heart disease. He explains that routine assessments and monitoring of key risk factors, such as cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar, can help catch issues early on and prevent them from becoming more serious. If you have a family history of heart disease or other risk factors, it’s especially important to stay on top of preventative care.
Artificial Light and Heart Health
Did you know that exposure to artificial light at night can negatively impact your heart health? Dr. Twyman explains that this is because it can interfere with your circadian rhythm, which is closely tied to heart function. To prevent this, he recommends avoiding screen time for at least an hour before bed and investing in blue light blocking glasses if you do need to use screens at night.
Conclusion
Preventing heart disease may seem daunting, but it’s possible with simple lifestyle changes and preventative care. By optimizing your lifestyle, focusing on healthy mitochondrial function, and working with your doctor to monitor your risk factors, you can reduce your risk of heart disease and live a longer, healthier life. And don’t forget to be mindful of your nighttime routines to protect your circadian rhythm and improve your heart health.
