Your heart is an amazing organ. It contracts and relaxes around 70 times a minute – that's 100,800 times per day and over 2.76 billion times during an average lifespan. If you look after your heart, it can carry on beating significantly longer, but fail to pay attention to your diet and lifestyle – well, your heart may fail prematurely as a result. And although traditionally viewed as a male disease, heart attacks now kill three times more women than cancers of the breast, ovaries and cervix combined.
Most people already know how to maintain a healthy heart – the difficulty is in putting it into practice! So at the risk of being boring, here's all the usual advice all over again.
You already knew most, if not all, of that didn't you? Promise yourself that from now on, you'll treat your body as a temple. It's easier to prevent a heart attack than to try to reverse the damage once one has already occurred.
