Pay attention to your blood vessel health
A healthy circulation supports overall health from brain function to energy levels. Nitric oxide (NO) is important for helping to relax blood vessels and support healthy blood pressure, but your body's natural production capacity will decrease with age. Poor diet and lack of exercise can make this condition worse.
Health monitoring
You should regularly monitor your blood pressure, blood sugar, and signs of elevated lipids, including signs of inflammation. detecting small changes early helps prevent serious health problems later on.
Building and maintaining muscle mass
As you age, you will naturally lose muscle. It is important to exercise to maintain muscle mass and strength. Muscles not only increase strength but also increase metabolism and fight the decline associated with aging. In addition to exercise, you should also build a healthy diet, supplement protein and get enough rest.
Get enough sleep each night
Not getting enough sleep each night can harm your physical and mental health. This can also negatively affect your heart. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep each night and establish a consistent relaxation routine to help reduce stress on the heart.
Control stress
Chronic stress is harmful to overall health by increasing inflammation, blood pressure and cortisol. Some ways to relieve daily stress include breathing deeply, practicing yoga or keeping a diary.
