At MUSC Health’s Heart & Vascular Center, we know that, in our world full of ads and claims, it can be tough to figure out what the best choices really are. Should you eat what your mother and grandmother cooked for you? Is that expensive exercise equipment worth it? How about those products plastered with claims that they’ll improve your health and extend your life? What if you’re already at high risk for heart disease — what then?
That’s why we wrote Your Guide to Heart & Vascular Health for Patients and Families – to help you filter through the confusion and learn what really makes a difference. We’ll start by introducing you to the risk factors for heart disease. Then, we’ll explain how to build a healthy eating plan with tips for weight management, label reading, dining out, and portion control.
