We can do hard work but we should not be workaholic. The body cannot bear the excessive stress caused due to heavy work. Taking rest in between hard work is recommended. Is there any special message to women? Yes, the arteries of women are narrower for women; so they should be very careful. There is a chance of attack by coronary and heart diseases by women than men, due to this reason. Due to change in life style, the women also started taking junk food instead of normal balanced diet. They need to do regular exercise, keep away from smoking habit and alcohol and keep the mind and body fresh to guard them from cardiovascular diseases. They should control cholesterol level and take proper treatment for estrogen deficiency. The people working in software companies should also learn to work without much strain to body and mind. They should engage themselves in physical activities in between work. How to protect us from heart diseases? The increase in blood pressure may cause stroke or heart disease. This may happen even in young age. We should reduce the content of salt in daily food we take. If we notice much fat especially around the abdomen or waist, we need to check our cholesterol and blood pressure. If these are normal, action should be taken to reduce the excess weight also. The blood sugar level should also be tested to minimize the risk of heart attack. Taking eight glasses of water daily, purifies all organs in the body. The food containing saturated fat should be avoided. Instead soyabean and sunflower oils, which contain polyunsaturated fat, can be used. The omega-3 protect our heart well. The nuts, whole grains and cereals can be taken regularly. So, we need not frighten about the heart disease. If we take balanced diet and if we do regular exercise we can look after our health properly.
