Taking Medications

Watching Your Blood Pressure
Keeping your blood pressure under control is an important part of treating your heart disease.
Making Healthy Food Choices
A healthy diet includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and fiber, and limited amounts of saturated fat and cholesterol.
Being Active
Exercise is good for your heart—even if you have heart disease. Your doctor can help you develop a fitness plan that's appropriate for you.
Staying Motivated
