Ways to Prevent Heart Disease

There are ways to prevent heart disease from occurring. Research prevention of heart disease. As an assignment write a list of ways to prevent heart disease. Interact with at least two other students.
There are many ways to prevent from having disease. There are ways to prevent many things.
1. Do not smoke or use tobacco products.
2. Exercise, be proactive.
3. Eating right, a Heart-healthy diet. All the vitamins you see over the counter drugs is good for you too. Check your cholesterol, and blood pressure.
4. Maintaining a healthy diet, weight, and staying in shape.
5. Get a check up with your regular doctor, a monthly physical is always good.
This next paragraph I’m going to write had a lot to do with the fact that my mother had feinting spells, and her cholesterol just too high, and became diabetic, because he would not lay off the sweets, coffee, and fatty meats. So I ended up changing her kitchen, literally throwing away all unnecessary and unhealthy types of food. You can choose are like instead of vegetable oil, Olive oil. Saturated fats can also be bad for your heart. Pick low fat protein types of food. Eat more vegetables and fruits (This may be annoying to hear over and over again. Please, take this seriously it helps your body better than foods that can kill you slowly). By selecting whole grains you will never go wrong. I seriously doubt that a majority of our population is allergic to whole grains. As a matter of fact, have you known anyone to be allergic to whole grains? Especially grains that have an equal amount of fiber and iron.
Note: My parents do not like me telling them what to do, but it helped. Because if they needed my help, then the only way was to listen to me. So now, they are eating better, and getting healthier.
Note: We went through this coure about eating, and being healthy through MED 201. Hint.
