Prevention and Management of Cardiovascular Disease

Prevention and management of cardiovascular disease in menopausal and older women involve several key strategies. Regular health check-ups help monitor blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, combined with regular exercise, can maintain heart health. Quitting smoking and managing stress are also crucial. Hormone therapy may be discussed with a healthcare provider, as it can affect heart health. Finally, staying informed and proactive about your health contributes to better outcomes and reduces the risk of cardiovascular issues as you age.
