MANAGING our heart health during winter is really about following a set of basic actions that will benefit our health all year round.
ATP Science naturopath practitioner Stephen Eddey reminds us, “cold weather means our body has to increase its metabolism to keep warm.
“When you increase your metabolism, you increase your heart rate and your blood pressure. That causes a mild stress on the heart. So, if your heart it not strong enough, that mild stress can be enough to tip you over the edge and can cause heart attacks which is why heart attacks increase during winter.”
Stephen offers six tips for countering this risk.
1. Exercise
2. Supplements
3. Cadio test
4. Fish oils
5. Eat well
6. Reduce stress
“Reduce the stress levels in your life, and start enjoying life by de-stressing which is probably the fourth pillar of health,” Stephen added.
