23.01.2022 GUT HEALTH is such a BUZZ topic at the moment and we are alllllll jumping on board. But what does a healthily gut actually mean for our body? MOOD & ANXIETY/DEPRESSION 95% of serotonin is formed in the gut. WOW if you’re not eating a healthy well balanced diet, your body of course won’t produce enough serotonin leading to brain fog, tiredness and feelings of anxiety and depression.... INFLAMMATION Chronic inflammation and poor circulation can 100% be a symptom of an unhealthy gut. IMMUNE HEALTH up time 70% of your immune fighting cells and ‘good’ bacteria is found in the lining of your belly. If your gut health is out of whack... your immune system may just be to!

20.01.2022 Can Unhealthy Sleep equal an Unhealthy Heart? Not included in our Healthy Habits listed above, as we think it deserved its very own moment. Let's talk Sleep! Sleep is one of the most important aspects of our life, however, it seems to be increasingly neglected in today's society. In a 2011 study, researchers found that progressively shorter sleep was associated with a 45% increased risk of developing coronary heart disease. ... So just how do we improve our Quality of Sleep? Choose Quality Bedding / Create a Happy Sleep Environment Your Sheets, Blankets, and mattresses are key when it comes to a good night's sleep. It creates an inviting environment, even temperature throughout the night, and provides proper support for your spine, ensuring you wake up fresh. You could try adding calming scents into your room, Lavender is known to not only relax you but improve your quality of sleep. Limit Light exposure before Bed Our bodies have a natural lead-up process before bedtime. Artificial light from electronics such as computers, laptops, phones affects this process. You can try setting your electronics to night mode or looking into apps that will help regulate your screen time. Limit Caffeine Everyone is different, but if you find yourself having trouble getting to sleep you should start to limit your caffeine intake in the afternoon. Spend time in Nature / Seek out Natural Light Exposure to natural light stimulates the body's natural sleep process. Nature can have a calming effect on our mind, which is going to help us switch off and get the recommended amount of sleep. #accesscardiology #cardiology #cardiac #cardiaccare #heartheslth #heart #perthdoctor #hearthealth #perthspecialist #cardiologist #perthcardiologist #healthylifestyle

16.01.2022 If a Healthy Heart is the name, a Healthy Lifestyle is the game. Did you know that Prevention is the best form of Heart Health. @heartresearchaustralia says 8 in 10 cases of premature heart disease and stroke are thought to have been preventable with changes in lifestyle behaviours. Here are some simple lifestyle changes that will have a big impact on your heart health... ... Get Moving. Exercise isn’t just about fitness. Moving your body everyday promotes blood flow and could reduce your risk of clots. It will stimulate your immune system and brain function! PSA Movement doesn’t have to mean complete exertion, gradual and gentle walks or swimming are hugely beneficial. Eat with your Head for your Heart. It is important to educate yourself on foods that will reduce your cholesterol, sugar levels and blood pressure. Remember your body needs fats, however that doesn’t mean you should reach for the chocolate try to include healthy fats with omega 3s like avocado & salmon! Protein is hugely important for a balanced diet, however eating red meat daily could effect your cholesterol levels how about a healthy omelette filled with vegetables instead? Mindfulness. It’s never to late to start, but it is important to remember we all have slow days or will come across set backs. Stay Positive and Optimistic!!!!!!!!! Finding a family member or friend to keep you on track can help. It’s also helpful to have their support when you’re preparing healthy meals and exercising. If you’re unsure where to start, talking with your GP about a fitness plan is a great option. #HeartHealthForLife

Cardiac or cardiovascular syncope is caused by various heart conditions, such as bradycardia, tachycardia or certain types of hypotension.

11.01.2022 You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes and bumps into you, making you spill your coffee everywhere Why did you spill the coffee? You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in the cup! Had there been tea, you would have spilled tea everywhere.... The point is, whatever is inside the cup, is what spilled out. Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which will happen), whatever is inside you will come out! It’s easy to fake it until you get rattled! So, we have to ask ourselves what’s in my cup? When life gets tough, what spills out? Joy, Gratefulness, peace, humility? Or does anger, bitterness, harsh words and reactions come out? YOU CHOOSE! This weekend, let’s work toward filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, joy, words of affirmation, kindness, gentleness and love for others. Your heart will thank you for it See more
