  1. Bike riding is one of the easiest exercise that can keep heart stroke/issues at bay. In one of the researches few of the German scientists conducted a text on 20 individuals who are suffering from one of the other heart related issues. They made few of them to exercise for 20 minutes a day and the others were asked to ride bike for the same amount of time. Latter when the research ended the scientists found out that the men who exercised still suffered stroke or heart attack in comparison to those that rode the bike.
  2. Try to have food rich in fiber for breakfast. According to a study published by the prestigious Harvard university in 1999, it was reported that men who had cereals that were rich in fiber for breakfast were 36% less likely to suffer from stroke. Likewise when it comes to women, it was noted that those that took 23 grams of fiber in their daily breakfast were 23% less likely to suffer from any heart ailments in comparison to those that had only 11 grams of fiber every day.
  3. Binge on a piece of dark chocolate everyday. It is been proven that the flavonoids present in the chocolate helps the arteries from clotting and also prevents the LDL (bad cholesterol) from oxidizing. Thus refraining it from forming plaque. Flavonoids are also known to help the arteries stay incredibly flexible. So all those who have a sweet tooth wait no further and much on a few pieces of dark chocolate every week.
  4. Taking a Vitamin B complex helps lower the risk of heart diseases in those that had undergone a recent heart surgery. Studies have shown that taking vitamin B complex every day instead of placebo, for opening up the arteries soon after a surgery, had lowered the level of substance called homocysteine (that is known for increasing the risk of heart stroke/diseases)
  5. This might sound as a good news for several men out there. Studies has shown that those that have a bottle of beer are less likely to suffer from a stroke or heart attack in comparison to those that do not have it. Wondering how? Well, its simple beer lowers the level of cholesterol in the body, reduces the level of fibrinogen (which is a protein that aids in blood clot) and increases the blood level of healthy antioxidants.

  • Have fish once a week at least
  • Binge on fresh salad by adding drops of flaxseed oil in it
