Modern life has made many daily routines more sedentary, screen-heavy and time-pressured. For heart health, the important question is not whether a person follows a perfect routine, but whether healthy habits are repeated consistently.
10 habits that support heart health
- Stay physically active through walking, cycling, sport or other movement.
- Build meals around vegetables, fruits, pulses and whole grains.
- Limit excess salt and highly processed foods.
- Avoid tobacco.
- Keep track of blood pressure, blood glucose and cholesterol when appropriate.
- Protect a regular sleep routine.
- Break up long periods of sitting.
- Use practical stress-management habits.
- Limit harmful alcohol use.
- Do not ignore unusual or sudden symptoms.
WHO identifies unhealthy diet, physical inactivity and tobacco use among important behavioural cardiovascular risk factors.
