New Studies Reinforce Heart-Healthy Lifestyle Choices | Dayotna Beach Medical Malpractice Attorney

Harvard University recently published two studies on the health of your heart that reiterate the widely supported notion that healthy living can lead to a healthy heart.

The first study looked at 84,000 women.  The researchers analyzed lifestyle choices such as exercise, weight and alcohol consumption.  Results show that women who follow recommended healthy lifestyle choices have an 80% lower risk of having high blood pressure.

The second study followed 21,000 men and looked at factors such as weight, smoking, and exercise.  Results found those who never smoked, held a healthy body weight and regularly exercised were 11% less likely to have heart failure.
