Exercise and Diet
Exercise is vital to your overall well being! However, exercise alone just isn't enough to maintain a healthy lifestyle! There are many documented cases of people who are in tiptop physical condition, but neglect other key risk factors like high cholesterol and plaque on the arteries. In the end they develop life threatening coronary problems just like anyone else.
Exercise also has limited affect on those who have a documented family history of heart disease. Don't get me wrong, exercise will definitely reduce your chances for coronary problems. However, with a genetic disposition to heart disease, it's even more important that exercise is done in tandem with a healthy, well balanced diet program focusing on cholesterol reduction and proper nutrition!
Next time you go for a snack after a hard workout, drop the burger and
add a little more healthy, nutritious lifting to your regimen!
