How quickly can you boost cardiovascular health?
Body system
uncontrollable factors
Time
measure over a set time - 1 week, weeks, 1 month, or 3+ months
effects of negative cardiovascular health: weight, gain, increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, stroke.
Improve health
Excercise
Exercise reduces the many of the risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
diet
Diet is a risk factor of cardiovascular disease intertwined with several other conditions such as obesity, high blood pressure, and uncontrolled diabetes.
meditation
Nitric oxide, a chemical that can expand blood vessels and facilitate free blood flow when the heart is pumping, has been demonstrated to increase in your body when you meditate, which may help lower your blood pressure.
cutting tobacco use
Excessive alcohol consumption causes the heart to expand over time, weakening its blood pumping abilities. This increases the risk of heart failure and disease. Smoking temporarily increases heart rate and blood pressure, while also affecting the heart’s ability to contract. Leading to similar risks of excessive alcohol use. The removal of negative consumption of these products, eliminates the inherit short term health risks.
cardiovascular health
Cardiovascular health measures the health of the heart and blood vessels. The blood pumped through your heart supplies vital oxygen and nutrients throughout your body, emphasising the importance of cardiovascular health
