The good news is that it is possible to significantly reduce its risk of stroke by adopting simple everyday habits:
- Stop smoking: the benefits are visible from the first few hours after the last cigarette.
- Moving more: 30 minutes of exercise per day is enough to improve blood circulation.
- Eating balanced: focus on foods rich in omega-3, magnesium and antioxidants.
- Limiting alcohol: Excessive consumption promotes hypertension and cardiovascular disease.
- Managing your stress: meditation, relaxation and quality sleep are your best allies.
Above all, consult your doctor regularly for appropriate follow-up.
An urgent public health problem
The stroke no longer only concerns seniors. The increase in cases among healthy young men is a wake-up call to us to rethink our habits.
If you smoke or recognise certain risk factors, it is never too late to act. Preventing is better than healing, and every little change in your lifestyle can make a huge difference.
