Know What Your BMI Should Be
While weight is typically seen as being a superficial conversation, to doctors, it’s more about the actual heart and body health rather than physical appearance. One study done in 2018 appeared in JAMA Cardiology and showed that having a high Body Mass Index (BMI) can increase the risk of heart disease. Talk to your doctor about what your BMI should be and try to keep to a healthy lifestyle. Don’t base your BMI on online charts since there are many more factors that contribute other than height and weight.

Brush Your Teeth Every Day
You might not have known this, but gum disease has a lot of the same risks as heart disease does. According to Harvad Health, bacteria found in your gums can travel to the blood vessels which in turn can inflame the arteries and create blood clots, increasing the risk of a stroke. While in 2012 the American Heart Association stated that it’s not always the case with gum disease, you should still brush and floss your teeth twice a day.
