Prevention through life-style changes
Many people can control their angina by following their medication regimen prescribed by their health professional and by making life-style changes that lower the heart’s workload and reduce stress.
The key to prevention for people with angina is learning to adjust their lives to minimize episodes of angina and therefore live more comfortably.
Other things you can do may include:
- Stop smoking (smoking makes the heart work harder)
- Lose excess weight
- Start an exercise program
- Lower your blood cholesterol levels
- Avoid eating heavy meals and rest after eating
- AVOID outside activities on EXTREMELY HOT OR COLD DAYS
- Reduce your stress: Learn to Meditate
The key to prevention for people with angina is learning to adjust their lives to minimize episodes of angina and therefore live more comfortably.
Then you need to read this book, by New Zealand author, Dr. David Lovell-Smith.
In this book Dr. David Lovell-Smith describes how his patients successfully used diet, lifestyle changes and Transcendental Meditation to bring their blood pressure down.
This book offers new hope and insight for those with high blood pressure but it is not for hypertensives alone. The knowledge which Dr Lovell-Smith presents in his book is timely and relevant, and its exposition is long overdue.
