After 40, your cardiovascular risk profile can change quietly. The good news: with the right monitoring and habits, heart health can improve at any age.
What to monitor
- Blood pressure (home readings + clinic checks)
- Fasting lipid profile (LDL, HDL, triglycerides)
- Blood sugar and HbA1c
- Waist circumference and weight trends
- Sleep quality, stress, and activity levels
If you feel chest pressure, sudden breathlessness, or fainting, seek emergency care immediately.
Simple changes that work
Aim for sustainable routines: walk daily, reduce ultra-processed foods, limit smoking/alcohol, and prioritize 7–8 hours of sleep.
