February National Heart Awareness Month/ A-1 Home Care Sherman Oaks

February is National Heart Health Awareness Month. In honor of this national awareness month, A-1 Home Care will focus this week on cleaning up our heart health and spreading useful information about avoiding heart disease and heart attacks.

Heart disease is a precursor to heart attack, and is largely preventable due to proper self care and healthy lifestyle. Importantly, there are many risk factors that you can change to avoid an unexpected trip to the emergency room. These include

• smoking
• being overweight or obese
• physical inactivity
• high blood pressure
• high blood cholesterol
• high blood sugar due to insulin resistance or diabetes
• an unhealthy diet (for example, a diet high in saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, and sodium).

For more than 20 years, A-1 Home Care has helped people improve the quality of their lives while remaining in their homes.  We serve Los Angeles County cities of Sherman Oaks, Santa Monica, Culver City, Glendale, Beverly Hills, Calabasas and Encino.
