Episode 175: Beyond Diet: The Non-Food Factors That Impact Your Heart Health
February is American Heart Month, a time to raise awareness about the number ONE cause of death worldwide—heart disease. While diet plays a significant role in heart health, it’s not the whole picture. In Episode 175 of the Real World Nutrition Podcast, Shelley discusses the non-food factors that impact your heart, including stress, sleep, and physical activity.
Chronic stress increases blood pressure and inflammation, poor sleep raises cardiovascular risk, and lack of movement weakens the heart. But small, sustainable lifestyle changes can make a big difference!
In this episode, Shelley shares practical tips for managing stress, improving sleep, and moving more—without completely overhauling your life.
