According to studies, if your job involves sitting on a desk for more than five hours then you have double the risk of suffering a heart failure compared to a person who has an active lifestyle. Make sure you take at least a five minute walk in an hour to reduce chances of hardening the arteries. A <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2022\/09\/08\/how-can-you-transform-your-passive-life-into-an-active-one-to-prevent-diabetes\/\">sedentary lifestyle<\/a><\/strong> has serious side effects on your overall health too.<\/p>\n<h3>2) Stress too much<\/h3>\n<p>Stress causes the body to release adrenaline which influences the way your body functions. In that case there might be an increase in heart rate or your blood pressure level. Over time, stress can cause damage to the blood vessels in your heart and increase your risk of sudden stroke or heart attack.<\/p>\n<h3>3) Overdoing it on salt<\/h3>\n<p>Excessive sodium can spike your blood pressure thereby making your more vulnerable to heart conditions. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2018\/10\/23\/unhealthy-food-you-should-try-to-avoid\/\">Unhealthy foods<\/a><\/strong> like potato chips, canned vegetables, frozen meals and meats contain a fair amount of sodium which can have an adverse effect on your heart. It is important to take the nutritional value of these foods in account before purchasing it so that you get the ones with lowest amount of sodium.<\/p>\n<h3>4) Not getting enough sleep<\/h3>\n<p>The heart rate dips when you sleep and goes up and down as a response to your dreams in various stages of your sleep. It is important for your heart to rest as it actively works in your waking hours. Sleep deprivation has similar effects on your heart like stress and can wreck your cardiovascular health. It is of utmost importance to sleep for at 7 hours to keep your heart healthy<\/p>\n<p>(This article is authored by Mr. Souvick Dey and first appeared on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practo.com\/healthfeed\/4-habits-that-are-damaging-your-heart-16836\/post\">https:\/\/www.practo.com\/healthfeed\/4-habits-that-are-damaging-your-heart-16836\/post<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Certain habits can cause damage to your heart even if you maintain a healthy diet&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4012,3118,4252,8,1957,4243],"tags":[253,212,834,810,835],"class_list":["post-4163","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-dilsehealthy","category-blood-pressure","category-heart-health","category-lifestyle-conditions","category-mental-health","category-self-care","tag-fitness","tag-health","tag-heart","tag-wellness","tag-world-heart-day"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Heart Health: 4 Bad Habits For Your Heart<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Your everyday routine could be hurting your heart health.
