Experts emphasize the importance of managing these cardiovascular risks to promote overall well-being. Engaging in regular physical activity, adhering to a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking are essential lifestyle changes that can enhance cardiovascular health. These measures not only support a healthy heart but also contribute to improved cognitive function and may delay the onset of neurodegenerative conditions.
As awareness grows about the interconnectedness of heart and brain health, individuals are encouraged to prioritize cardiovascular wellness as a proactive strategy for safeguarding their cognitive future. The message is clear: taking care of the heart is vital for the brain.
