As a cardiac surgeon, I implore people over 60: stop this morning habit before it’s too late.

10. Spending the majority of the day sitting or lying down

Mary, 68, once told me:
“Doctor, I’m retired, I have every right to rest.”

Two months later, she arrived at the emergency room with chest pains.

Walking  30 minutes a day  can reduce the risk of heart attack by nearly  50% .

When you sit for too long:

  • blood circulation is reduced

  • Fats accumulate in the arteries

  • the heart gradually weakens

Simply start with a  10-minute walk after each meal.
