1. Keep your heart or blood circulation condition under control
In winter, the heart has to work harder to pump blood to the body. That is why it is important that you take proper care of your heart health. Take medicines on time and if needed, stay in regular contact with the doctor. If you have any heart disease, pay special attention to it in winter.
2. Protect yourself from the flu
Winter flu can make heart disease even worse. If you are older or already have heart disease, your risk of flu increases. The NHS is rolling out flu vaccines this winter, and this can be very beneficial to your health.
3. Get energy from tasty and healthy food
Winter makes one crave comfort food, but it is equally important to provide the body with the necessary nutrition. Eat fruits and vegetables as they strengthen your immune system and help prevent illnesses during the winter season.
4. Stay active and exercise
It may be harder to stay active in cold weather, but regular exercise helps keep your heart and body healthy. Try home exercises like yoga, Pilates, and dance. If you don't want to go outside, you can still stay healthy indoors.
5. Take care of your mental health
In winter, days are short and nights are long, which can affect mental health. Vitamin D deficiency can worsen mood. To reduce stress, pay attention to mental health as well. Keep in touch with friends and family and practice mindfulness. By adopting these simple measures, you can take good care of your heart and health this winter.
