Life after angioplasty is a new beginning—an opportunity to build a heart-healthy lifestyle. Prioritize a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Exercise regularly, aiming for at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days. Quit smoking, limit alcohol, and manage stress through mindfulness or yoga. Take medications as prescribed and attend all follow-up appointments. Monitor blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Staying committed to these habits not only prevents future blockages but also strengthens your heart and improves overall well-being. A healthy lifestyle is your best defense.
