Good Health R.G. Iyer
HAVE you ever wondered
how to keep your heart healthy? While
periodic medical check up is crucial, your own efforts can go a long way to
lighten your heart. During erratic climate conditions – too cold or too hot
seasons, optimum care should be taken.
The problem of high or low blood pressures can well be handled by a
medical practitioner with the requisite expertise. Eliminating stress and strains, good
exercise, healthy food devoid of fatty elements are basic requisites for
maintaining your health.
For years, heart experts all over the world have been
harping on the importance of exercise and physical
activity in preventing heart
disease and increasing day people walk, jog, or swim in an effort to stay fit
and healthy. But how does exercise, help the heart? After all, during exercise heart beats faster
and the blood pressure usually rises – indicating that the heart is working
harder than usual to pump blood around the body. So, it might seem rather stranger that this
activity can help prevent a heart attack.
But to know how exercise helps the heart, you need to understand what
happens to the heart when you exercise.
