Why does everyone need to visit the best heart specialist clinic in Singapore?

The brain might be the most important organ, but it cannot function without the heart pumping enough oxygen into the organ. A growing number of adults are currently experiencing cardiovascular problems due to lifestyle choices and high pollution. After a certain age, everyone experiences a higher risk of heart attacks irrespective of their ethnicity and dietary habits.

According to the leading cardiologists at Julian Tan Heart Specialist Clinic Singapore, everyone above 35 should get a thorough cardiovascular check-up at least once a year. The heart health screening tests offer accurate ways of identifying the risk factors that can contribute to heart diseases later in life. These risk factors can be environmental or genetic. Getting a screening does not imply the inevitable. In fact, it gives you the chance to change your future.

Every human being wants to live a happy and healthy life with their family and friends. Heart problems can usurp all life plans in a matter of seconds. There is no reason to be upset if your screening results come back less than ideal. It means it is time for you to take a step towards the conservation of your cardiac health. Here are a few ways you can keep the increasing risk of heart problems at bay irrespective of your test results.

 

  • Exercise

 

An optimal workout can help in invigorating the cardiac muscles, improve pumping capacity and increase lung volume. That means you have a better chance of beating any cardiovascular challenge. Moreover, regular exercising decreases the risk of suffering stress attacks from sudden physical activity.

 

Diet

 

Make sure your diet has lots of dietary fibers, healthy proteins, and good fat. Omega-3-fatty acids are good for cardiac health, but saturated fats and trans-fats are bad. It is a simple tip you should remember the next time you are ordering dinner. Sometimes, substituting the side of fry for a salad or opting for fish instead of steak can prevent the cholesterol buildup.

 

Sleep

 

Sleep deprivation is a ubiquitous problem for today’s youth. The lack of sleep prevents the body from rebuilding depleted resources and keeps it from making necessary internal repairs. Surmounting sleep pressure can exert unwarranted stress on the heart muscles. Prolonged sleep problems can give rise to palpitations, anxiety problems, and tachycardia.

 

Salt

 

If you are above 40 and your ancestors have a history of heart disorders, you might want to watch your salt intake. High sodium in the blood can cause the blood pressure to rise and create excess pressure on the arteries. Choose fresh produce over packaged food to cut down excess salt in your diet.

 

Weight

 

Obese people have at least twice the risk of suffering cardiac arrest as compared to those with a healthy BMI. If you are grossly overweight, you should think about weight management right away. It should also be a wakeup call for all couch potatoes, who love to “Netflix and chill” at home with a tub of popcorn and potato chips.

Getting your heart health checkup is imperative to understand exactly what steps you need to take to improve the quality of your life and the health of your heart.
