The colder weather is just about upon us. Many people are happy that it’s not so hot, but the wintertime brings with it its own set of precautions for your wellness. Continue reading to discover how to remain wholesome in the winter months.
You’d think that because you’re not out in the flaming hot sun that you could rest easier with affairs of the heart, but not so.
As a matter of fact, the incidence of heart attacks appears to go upward during the wintertime. Why is this?
First off let us consider cold weather. Just like the bears, we become slower, inside and out. The body temperature under normal conditions is a balmy ninety-eight point six degrees. It has to work harder during the wintertime to conserve that core temp.
To that end, the blood vessels constrict to conserve heat. If you’re somebody with a history of heart issues, constricted blood vessels is the last thing you want. Since the opening in the vessels (lumen) is more small, it will take additional force to drive the blood through, leading to ascending blood pressure.
Compound all of that with outdoor activity in the wintertime, and you’re looking at circumstances that may be right for a heart attack. Shoveling snow is arduous strenuous work that may lead to signs of a heart attack in certain folks.
So, what can you do about maintaining your heart’s health?
* Consume a sensible diet – many of us lean towards not eating good once it becomes frigid, yet there are benefits to it. For one, a good diet may lower your blood pressure, cholesterol and weight. Aggregate this with exercise and your heart may be in the clear.
* Warm up – The body will experience a more arduous time holding body temperature if you merely get out of bed and throw on your coat prior to heading out the doorway. If you’re going to be outdoors shoveling snow or performing a wintertime sport, expend time inside warming up. Jog in place or skip some rope. Once you’re loosened up, make certain to execute some dynamic stretching to get the body locomoting. Then, head outside for play or tasks.
* Dress up warmly – You do not need to be wrapped up like a mummy. Layer your clothes so you do not feel heavy but you’re well protected from the elements.
* Consult a Dr. – This is true for everybody but particularly if you have lived a lifetime on the sofa. Going from inactive to fully active shoveling snow might be a baneful shock to the system. Ask if it’s alright for you to do such arduous lifting.
* Consider breaks – do not shovel snow for 3 hours and fall into the home panting. A regular break every 30 minutes affords the body time to rest and you time to warm up.
You may look forward to the wintertime months but will your heart? The pointers above may help you to keep it shielded once it becomes cold.
