SEASONAL TR_XENDS

Listen To Your Heart

February is American Heart Month, a time to prioritize your heart health and take steps toward a healthier lifestyle. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, but small changes to your everyday lifestyle can make a big difference in managing risk factors.

Eat Well, Move Often: Consume a heart-healthy diet full of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein, and strive for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week.
Knowledge Is Power: Monitor your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels with your doctor to stay informed about your heart health.
Decompress: Take intentional steps to manage your stress and regulate your nervous system.

Forming healthy habits is the key to heart disease prevention. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has an extensive guide to the various components of heart health, including conditions and symptoms of heart disease, risk factors, and treatment.

Empowered with this information, Pharmacy Benefit Dimensions encourages you to show your heart some extra love this month!
