1. Get eight hours of sleep. This helps lower blood pressure and increases your metabolism.

2. Lift weights. Gaining 5 to 10 pounds of lean muscle significantly increases your fat-burning ability.

3. Meditate. Research shows this lowers stress, blood pressure, and the risk of heart attack and stroke, and it also may reverse atherosclerosis.

Prevention is also a great way to have piece of mind and also allows for better sleep. Please review what THREE Nobel Prize Laureates have discovered and how this can literally change lives.
Dr. Louis Ignarro currently at UCLA is one of the Laureates. Here is his interview: http://www.istrunk.com/ignarro then another website again with literally hundreds of articles all based on this major discovery at http://www.automted4health.com a great resource all in one place. Includes a new FDA approved device similar to the digital pulse oximiter called the DPA (Digital Pulse Analyser) to help with detection and prevention. Your comments are greatly appreciated.
