📌 To our dear lolos and lolas!

Stay hydrated, mga ka-PHA! Ang labis na init ay masama sa puso. 🥵

Kapag ang katawan ay nainitan, maaari kang ma-dehydrate! Ito ay magdudulot ng paglapot ng iyong dugo na pwedeng maging sanhi ng pagbabara sa mga ugat.

Heto ang ilang mga tips:
✅ Kung 'di nyo kayang manatili sa loob ng bahay, manatili kayo sa malilim na lugar kapag sobrang tirik ng araw.
✅Uminom ng maraming tubig.
✅Magdala ng payong.
✅Kapag nakaramdam ng biglang pagod at pagbilis ng tibok ng puso, magtungo sa pinakamalapit na ospital.

Ingat, mga ka-PHA! 🥰❤️

Researchers from the University of Utah proved that social support is one of the most reliable predictors of better health outcomes, including lower cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Although past research has focused on links between social support and health outcomes, much less work has explored whether social support is a mediator of the association between other psychological factors and cardiovascular disease.

Pet ownership is an important nonhuman form of social support and may provide cardioprotective benefits in patients with established CVD. In a substudy of the Cardiac Arrhythmia Suppression Trial (CAST), 1-year survival data were assessed in 369 study participants on the basis of whether or not the participant owned a pet. Overall, pet ownership of any kind tended to be independently associated with survival. Dog ownership was strongly associated with decreased mortality, with the likelihood of mortality being over 4 times greater for dog nonowners than for dog owners; the benefit of dog ownership on survival was independent of physiological measures or the severity of CVD.
