08.01.2022 Heart Disease Awareness Month - NUTRITION! Other than exercise, nutrition has a huge impact on preventing heart disease risk factors such as; high blood pressure, high cholesterol, weight gain and diabetes. Eat a variety of unprocessed food (whole food), along with plenty of fruit, veg, protein and wholegrains. ... Non-meat proteins help prevent heart disease: beans, chickpeas, lentils, nuts and seeds, as well as fish. Limit red-meat to 1-3 meals per week. Help lower cholesterol with wholegrains: brown rice, wholemeal pasta, grainy bread and oats. Substitute healthy oils in cooking: olive, canola, sunflower, peanut and soybean oil. Use herbs and spices to flavour your food instead of salt. Correct healthy eating proportions: 1/2 vegetables, 1/4 carbohydrates and 1/4 protein. #healthyeating #heartdiseaseawarenessmonth Ref: https://www.heartfoundation.org.au/heart-hea/healthy-eating

08.01.2022 November is Pancreatic Awareness Month. This article by Andréa Leiserowitz (a doctor in physical therapy, Seattle) is an excellent read! It's about how one of her patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer was determined to "out-exercise" cancer and adopted a consistent exercise routine. It demonstrates just how important exercise is right from the start of cancer diagnosis. https://www.seattletimes.com//how-exercise-physical-thera/

02.01.2022 3 TYPES OF EXERCISE TO PREVENT & TREAT HEART DISEASE: 1. Aerobic Exercise Improves circulation, lowers blood pressure and helps your cardiac output (heart pumping power!). Frequency: Everyone is different, however 30mins of aerobic exercise 5 times a week is a good guide.... Examples: Swimming, brisk walking, running, jump-rope, tennis, cycling. 2. Resistance Training (Strength Training) Reduces body fat (belly fat is a risk factor for heart disease) and builds muscle. Frequency: At least 2 non-consecutive days of resistance training per week. Examples: Free weight workouts (dumbbells, barbells), resistance bands, body-weight exercises (push-ups, squats). 3. Flexibility and Balance Although not directly related to preventing heart disease, flexibility will help maintain musculoskeletal strength and avoid injuries so you can keep on exercising! Frequency: Every day if you can. Examples: Basic muscle stretching, yoga. #heartdiseasemonth #exercisephysiology
