February is Heart Health Awareness Month at CCM Health

CCM Health Heart Health Bingo

February is a time to celebrate love and connection, but it’s also the perfect time to prioritize your heart health! Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of death in the United States, making it essential to focus on prevention and healthy habits. At CCM Health, we’re committed to helping our community members in Southwest Minnesota take charge of their heart health with education, preventative care, and engaging activities like our Heart Health BINGO challenge.

Preventative Care for a Healthy Heart
Preventative care is one of the most effective ways to maintain a healthy heart. Regular check-ups with your healthcare provider allow you to monitor your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and overall cardiovascular health. CCM Health’s Cardiology Department offers comprehensive services to help you stay on track, including screenings, diagnostics, and personalized care plans.

Here are some preventative measures to keep your heart in great shape:

  • Stay Active: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week. Activities like walking, cycling, or participating in a group fitness class can boost your cardiovascular health.
  • Eat a Balanced Diet: Incorporate plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats into your meals. Limit your intake of processed foods, sugar, and sodium.
  • Quit Smoking: Smoking significantly increases your risk of heart disease. If you need help quitting, CCM Health’s team can provide resources and support.
  • Manage Stress: Chronic stress can take a toll on your heart. Practice stress-relief techniques like deep breathing, yoga, or spending time with loved ones.
