Most of us should keep sodium intake below 2,300 milligrams a day. If you have high blood pressure or are over 50, cut back to 1,500 milligrams.
Avoiding fruits and vegetables 不吃水果蔬菜
“The most heart-healthy diet is a plant-based diet”, Dr. Ostfeld says. That means loading up on fruits and vegetables, nuts, whole grains, low-fat dairy, and protein, and keeping junk food to a minimum.
Research has found that people who eat more than five servings of fruits and vegetables a day had about 20% lower risk of heart disease and stroke than people who ate less than three servings per day.
Ignoring physical symptoms 忽略身体信号
If you used to walk up three flights of stairs without a problem, but suddenly you’re short of breath after one flight or have chest pressure, it’s time to call your doctor—now.
Doctors say “time is muscle”, meaning the quicker you get treatment for possible trouble, the less likely you are to have permanent damage to your heart muscle. “It’s better for it to be much ado about nothing than sitting on a heart attack for six hours,” which is not uncommon, Dr. Ostfeld says.
