What Is a Heart Attack?
7. Prevention
With the right choices, we can make it a lot less likely that we will suffer a heart attack ourselves. This includes lifestyle choices like eating healthily, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. It also helps to avoid being exposed to stress for too long and trying to take at least a little time to relax.
If you are in a high risk category, your doctor may be able to prescribe medication to help reduce the chances of a heart attack happening. This can include medication that will help reduce your cholesterol levels, and/or medication that will help to reduce your blood pressure.
