3 Ways to be More Heart Healthy

​Your heart beats without you even having to think about it. Since it is always working, it is crucial to keep your heart healthy. The American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine wants to share with you three ways you can keep your heart in shape.
 
Fruits & Vegetables- Part of a healthy diet includes fruits and vegetables, but do you know why they are so important? There are substances found in both fruits and vegetables that can assist in the prevention of heart disease. Don’t skip your daily servings because it will be very beneficial in the future.
 
Less Sodium- Try to cut down on how much sodium you put into your body because the higher your sodium intake is, the more likely you are to have high blood pressure. This can lead to cardiovascular disease.
 
Planning- Plan your meals out in advance, whether it is just for the day or the entire week. By knowing what you are going to eat, the less likely you are to consume high amounts of sodium and unhealthy fats.
