Each year, countless American families are impacted by heart disease and stroke. In order for this to improve we must change the way we live our daily lives. With nutrition and exercise along with controlling their stress, people can fight this disease and save lives.
Nutrition has an important impact on personal heart health, but without right information, where so average Americans learn how to help themselves? The National Institute of Child Health and fHuman Development (http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/diet and nutrition.cfm) gives tips on what proper nutrition is and how you should get it.
Exercise can also help prevent heart disease. With diet and exercise your chances of getting heart disease are far less. Staying in shape does good for not only your body but your mood.
