HOW TO STOP HEART DISEASE

THE secret to fighting heart disease was revealed by experts last night.

Just a handful of lifestyle changes could save tens of thousands of lives a year.

Taking more exercise, eating more fruit and vegetables, reducing alcohol intake and slashing the amount of saturated fat in our diet could drastically reduce the toll of Britain’s biggest killer and save the NHS up to £3billion a year.

The healthy living plan, devised by charity HEART UK, could slash the amount of bad cholesterol in the blood by up to a third. Bad cholesterol is a fatty substance that clogs up arteries and can lead to heart attacks and strokes.

The organisation’s chief executive Jules Payne said: “Two out of three UK adults have unnecessarily high cholesterol levels, which can so easily be reduced.

“We know people often find diets difficult to stick to but this is more of a general lifestyle plan. It is flexible, easy to follow and can have dramatic results.”

You're absolutely right. As my GP (family doctor) sometime ago. And why I've been running lunch times for the past 3 years :-)

Struggle with the idea of a Mediterranean diet though...but do take Porridge in the morning for breakkie...

I'm with you until the saturated fat. It's not quite that straightforward on that side. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/satur...#axzz27DjRPP5o

As the ancient Olympians came from the upper social strata in Greece, these families could afford to feed on more protein-rich legumes and meats to build muscle and did not have to rely on mostly breads, fruits and vegetables.

Early records point to a cheese and fruit based diet for the first Olympic athletes, and later on the dietary emphasis shifted to meat.

Nor should you. BTW, my "diet" drink of choice is Tequila (doesn't matter what kind, so long as it's 100% Agave) in club soda muddled with lemon. Clean, fresh, relatively low in calories, no gluten and if I only drink these, I simply don't get a hangover.

Just call it "internal bruise medicine" and no one will notice.

Yeah, that's actually WHY I do Hapkido, BJJ and Kickboxing, so I CAN drink and still stay in reasonable shape at 50 :)
