A Week of responsible attitude to the heart is held in the sanatorium "Krasivo". The doctors of the sanatorium have prepared booklets, flyers, films and presentations on this topic. The fight against cardiovascular diseases, together with the development of the primary health care system, are the main reserves for increasing life expectancy. The heart is the most important organ of our body. The health and life expectancy of a person directly depends on the state of the cardiovascular system. It is necessary for every person to take care of the heart. It is necessary to maintain moderate physical activity in the amount of at least 150 minutes per week, and remember about ten thousand steps a day, eat rationally, as well as control blood pressure, heart rhythm, blood glucose and lipid profile. The medical community is united in the opinion that a healthy lifestyle is the basis for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. A healthy lifestyle implies proper nutrition, sufficient physical activity, preventive examinations for the purpose of timely detection of non-communicable diseases, as well as the rejection of bad habits. In addition, the prevention of treatment of cardiovascular diseases is based on regular monitoring of indicators such as body mass index, blood pressure and heart rate, glucose and cholesterol levels in the blood. Take care of yourself!
