“Let’s start with the scary stuff. The UK has one of the highest rates of death from heart disease in the world. 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. Learn to love your heart and avoid the risk of being added to these unfortunate statistics!” Ruth Chambers.
