The World Heart Federation celebrates World Heart Day on the 29th of September every year to raise awareness of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD).
CVD is the leading cause of death worldwide and is a major health threat in the UAE.
More than half of UAE residents have been affected by heart disease during their lifetime, either through being diagnosed themselves, having a close friend or family member diagnosed with it.
A healthy diet and lifestyle are the keys to preventing and managing CVD. A heart-healthy diet may help reduce cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure, reduce your risk of diabetes and help you maintain a healthy weight.
Make sure to eat enough fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, omega-3 rich foods such as fatty fish, nuts and seeds.
