How To Live Healthy While Living As A Heart Patient

Living with heart disease is a challenging task, especially with the dramatic and fast-paced changes. Heart problems sound scary and can be serious conditions that require doctor’s care, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re stopped or failed. About 50 to 90 thousand people are diagnosed with heart conditions each year. If you have certain heart disease, you would need regular checkups on vital signs such as weight and blood pressure. You may also have to change your lifestyle to manage wellness and take an active role in maintaining your productive life. 

Follow these tips to successfully live with a heart condition. 

Tip number one: Quit smoking

It is medically proven that smoking causes increased risks for heart attack, stroke, and high blood pressure. Smoking causes inflammation and the formation of blood clots that can cause cancer. However, it’s never too late to throw the cigarette in the trash can; the sooner you quit bad habits, the longer your heart can function normally. 

Tip number two: Check your weight every day

Weight gain is always the first sign of heart failure because it means you’re retaining fluids from your body. Doctors recommend patients keep a daily chart or a daily log and measure their weight gain. You should immediately call your doctor if you gain more than three pounds in a day. You can also check your ankles, legs, and abdomen for swelling, which could be signs of oedema—swellings caused by excess fluid trapped in your body fluids. 

Tip number three: Commit to a heart-healthy eating lifestyle

Adding healthy products to your diet can improve your heart state. A heart-healthy diet consists of lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, low fat intake, fish, whole grains, nuts, beans, plant-based oils, low-fat dairy products, and eggs. All low-saturated fat meals with empty calories can help to reduce the risk of increasing the risk of heart failure. 

Tip number four: Develop a good sleep routine

Getting a good night’s sleep is essential to keep your body healthy and maintain overall good health. Patients with heart conditions are more likely to experience sleep disorders, for example, breathing, oversleeping, or insomnia. To improve your sleep, you should adopt a healthy bedtime routine by waking up and sleeping at the same time every day, keeping your room dark and warm, staying away from all electronic gadgets and blue light exhibitors, and covering your windows so that your room remains dark throughout the night. 

Tip number five: Take prescribed medications

As a heart patient, it is crucial to intake your prescribed medications with the prescribed dosage and timings. You can set up reminders to stay on track, such as placing sticky notes on your refrigerator door, bathroom cabinet, or fridge, or use alarms as a reminder. Missing your medical dosage can have serious repercussions such as worsening your heart state, thinning blood, or sudden weight gain.
