  • the all points you have mentioned I think best for prevent. In addition food habit especially spicy, junk food should be avoid and keep distance for anxiety, tension or mental pressure. Then heart function will be more smooth.

  • Reduce your alcohol intake, quit smoking, eat healthy food, do yoga and cardio exercise.

  • How do you get a healthier heart, right now? The answer sounds too good to be true: “By simply leading a healthier life,” according to Nieca Goldberg, MD, medical director of New York University’s Women’s Heart Program and author of Dr. Nieca Goldberg’s Complete Guide to Women’s Health.

    That’s because even small, steady changes in your life mean a stronger, more efficient heart. “More than half of heart disease is preventable, and studies have shown that 90% of heart attacks in women can be prevented,” she adds. Further, the latest study in Archives of Internal Medicine shows that women who eat loads of veggies, fruit, whole grains, fish, and legumes; drink moderate amounts of alcohol; exercise; maintain a healthy weight; and don’t smoke have a whopping 92% decreased risk of having a heart attack compared with women with less healthy diets and habits.Medical Equipment Manufactrur in China

    An added bonus? “So many things we do to help our heart, like quitting smoking, eating more fiber, and moving more, also help other parts of our body, including our bones, colon, lungs, and skin,” Goldberg says. And February is Heart Disease Awareness Month, making this the perfect time to start improving your ticker -- and the rest of you.

  • Just shared this on my Facebook and Google+: Amazing! Just went to satsang (group meditation) nearby associated with Ramashram satsang www.facebook.com/sadhan.ramashram Just before going to the satsang, I had shared Tips for Heart Health http://www.healthfitnessindia.com/forum/topics/tips-for-heart-health on my wall. I reached just before the prayer ended and the meditation started. I first started meditating around 18 years ago and have been doing it daily for several years now and so during meditation I thought that I would also share about meditation in the Tips for Health Health link. Right after meditation and prayer was over, the elderly person conducting the satsang spoke about "hriday ke netre" (eyes of the heart) and "divya chakshu" (divine eyes) and Lord Krishna giving them to Arjuna so that Arjuna could see the real self of Lord Krishna.

    I rarely to weekly satsang go not because I don't value it but due to other reasons. Parents go regularly. The weekly satsang happens across India and also in USA, Canada, Germany and other countries. They can also keep changing locations within the cities for weekly satsang (generally on weekends) and so if you're interested to learn more then you might find a location nearby you during the different weeks. You can also inquire through the Facebook page that I've shared in this post. Best!

  • A team of scientists at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland have developed the world’s smallest medical implant to monitor critical chemicals in the blood. The 14mm device measures up to five indicators, including proteins like troponin, that show if and when a heart attack has occurred. Using Bluetooth, the device can then transmit the data to a smartphone for tracking. The device can also track levels of glucose, lactate, and ATP, providing valuable data for physiologic monitoring during activity, or in possible disease conditions like diabetes. As far as tricorders go, this device may be the one you have been waiting for, provided you are on board for the implant.
