    This is great advice not only for heart health but to minimize the risk of many other diseases as well. If you do nothing else but cut out fast food and sugar laden beverages, you will make great progress towards improving your diet and overall health.

    Thank you for the chance to review very important facts and gui9delines for heart health. I always read these incase I could improve my info. Exercise is one thing I would add to this as a very important factor in a sedintary world I see most people taking as easy goes and forget my heart exercise public. My whole family is sedintary and I seem unable to motivate them, please give me some ideas? I feel a wake up call is needed for most of us before it is too late. Joanie Loveless, Effort, Pa

    a very good article indeed. I really like quick lists, and this one is quite focused and helpful - fruits and vegetables are the best for you.

    Great article. Cutting most dairy out of my diet and substituting rice or soy milk on my cereal has also made me feel much less sick. Also, I saw posted on campus that soda intake is so strongly tied to weight gain that, for each additional soda consumed, risk of obesity increases by 1.6 percent. Not to mention how it leaches calcium right out of your bones...

    Thanks so much indeed for these lifesaving tips even as one prays for the ability to put them into action especially the requirement for regular exercises considering the fast pace nature of today's life & living.

    Try to make your family wake earlier in the morning, going to bed earlier. Use the energy of music to put some vigor in their body. Decrease their time of tele watching. shift to the channels of exercises. bring books at home about exercises, add in the favourites of the web surfer the sites highlighting physical activities.
