3. Monitor Your Blood Pressure
Check it regularly, especially if you have hypertension.
Take all prescribed medications without skipping doses.
4. Stay Active Indoors
Do light exercises like stretching, walking around the house, or yoga.
Aim for at least 20–30 minutes of movement daily.
5. Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water, even if you don’t feel thirsty.
Proper hydration helps prevent thickening of the blood.
6. Limit Alcohol and Avoid Smoking
Keep within recommended limits (1 drink/day for women, 2 for men).
Smoking damages blood vessels and increases clot risk.
7. Eat a Heart-Healthy Diet
Focus on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein.
Reduce salt, saturated fat, and sugar.
