9. Lifestyle Causes
In many cases, congestive heart failure can be prevented simply by taking better care of your heart. This can help to prevent conditions like coronary heart disease that can affect the heart’s ability to function properly. Taking better care of your heart tends to mean living a healthy lifestyle.
This means eating well and avoiding food that can clog blood vessels and cause high blood pressure. It also means staying active to get the cardio vascular system working from time to time. It is also wise to avoid other activities that can be harmful to your health, such as smoking and excessive drinking.
