9. Can Lifestyle Changes Affect the Condition?

Positive lifestyle changes can have a positive impact on the severity and perseverance of angina. Primarily, angina is a reversible condition, especially with early intervention. Therefore, to reduce your risk and severity of the disease, make healthy lifestyle choices. For example, if you smoke, stop. If you are overweight, seek weight-loss guidance. However, while exercise is a healthy choice, speak with your doctor before starting an exercise program. You may need to start slowly and build endurance. All healthy decisions are good, but always consult your physician to make sure you aren’t putting yourself at higher risk.
