"Let's start with the scary stuff. The UK has one of the highest rates of death from heart disease in the world. One British adult dies from it every three minutes, and stroke is the country's third biggest killer, claiming 70,000 lives each year. But if you learn to love your heart, nurture it and understand its needs, you can greatly reduce your risk of suffering from heart disease. Just thinking about your lifestyle - diet, exercise, stress - being aware of what your heart needs and making some changes in your daily routine can strengthen this most important muscle. Follow my advice. Learn to love your heart and avoid the risk of being added to these unfortunate statistics!" Ruth Chambers. Live life to the fullest.
