8 healthy habits for your heart<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Cholesterol under control: <\/strong>less than 200 mg\/dl is the best. Maintaining this level, we avoid the formation of atheromatous plaque in the arteries and prevent cardiovascular diseases.<\/li>\n
  2. Healthy weight<\/strong>: between 18.5 and 24.9 is the healthy range for your body mass index. For each extra unit of BMI, the cardiac risk increases by 20%.<\/li>\n
  3. Blood pressure<\/strong>: 120-129 mmHG (maximum) and 80-84 mmHG (minimum) is considered normal. To balance it, reduce your salt intake, do exercise every day and sleep 7-8 hours a day.<\/li>\n
  4. More green food: <\/strong>diet is key for preventing high blood pressure, diabetes and cholesterol. Try to eat more fresh food and limit processed foods.<\/li>\n
  5. Glucose levels<\/strong>: it is essential to control the levels of sugar in your blood. Having less than 140 mg\/dl reduces the risk of diabetes and cardiac and cerebrovascular disease.<\/li>\n
  6. Quality sleep<\/strong>: getting enough rest, sleeping all night without interruption and waking up with energy in the morning can be signs of good cardiovascular health.<\/li>\n
  7. Healthy teeth<\/strong>: maintaining good oral hygiene, visiting the dentist at least once a year and avoiding tobacco can help you to take care of your heart while also taking care of your mouth.<\/li>\n
  8. Staying active: <\/strong>practicing sport makes your heart work and keeps it strong. Try to move for at least 30 minutes a day and combine aerobic and strength exercises.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
