Yeh, I’m on the heart failure or shall I say health band wagon again. But it is serious and largely preventable, I know this might sound corny but it is a serious as a heart attack.
So let’s get cracking what can you do today to destroy your heart:
- Don’t have a regular doctor who knows you, your history and your special requirements, somebody who knows your medical challenges best when it is emergency time.
- Don’t have breakfast, by breakfast I mean a healthy protein smoothie, not a bowl of sugar laden supposed healthy cereal. Fresh fruit is always great. Not having breakfast prevents your metabolism from firing up properly, it reduces your bodies chances of burning fat.
- Do engage in major road rage on your way to dropping the kids at school or work, it does wonders for your stress levels and gets your heart and adrenalin levels shooting through the roof.
- Don’t drink water but instead “quench” your thirst with sodas and coffee, there goes your elimination system, I bet you’re feeling pretty sluggish by now.
- Don’t have a healthy snack like almonds (unsalted) during the course of the morning to help your metabolism burn all those unwanted deadly fats.
- Don’t have a healthy wholegrain sandwich with roast beef for lunch, instead grab a burger and fries or even better a insulin inducing pastry.
- Do have numerous cups of coffee during the course of the day and even add a bit of alcohol just to take the edge off all the office politics.
- Do become a couch potato when you get home, watch the game, eat chips and drink beer.
- Don’t do any exercise your body is coping horribly with all the abuse you are heaping on it.
- Don’t take the time out to relax and spend with your family and friends, don’t tell your loved one you love them and mean it, don’t get out into nature and enjoy the sunlight.
Alarming isn’t it? How many of these 10 things do you do every day, without giving your bodies a thought at all.
That is until it is to late.
Don’t become a statistic, live a long and healthy life instead.

Wow, I’m afraid I’m doing about 7 of those. I think of myself as getting lots of exersize, but when it comes down to it, I find I go for weeks at a time with none at all. I think that’s a big key. We imagine ourselves living an entirely different life that we really are. Thanks for the reality check!
