HELP YOUR HEART
SLEEP WELL
Aim for seven to nine hours a night - any more or less slightly increases the risk of heart disease.
ORAL HYGIENE
Brushing, flossing and dental checks can assist by preventing bacteria build-up in the body.
STAND UP
Excessive time sitting can lead to coronary artery calcification. Aim to take frequent standing breaks.
THINK POSITIVE
Look on the bright side. A US study found optimists had better cardiovascular health than pessimists.
