Good heart health is not entirely genetic in origin and is also dependent on lifestyle.

One can take a few steps, however small, to make a radical difference in heart health.

Experts say that the more active a person is, the healthier he is. However, according to studies, one hour of vigorous physical activity during the week makes a significant difference in health.

Eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day is essential for heart health. You can eat one serving of fruits and vegetables in the morning and then eat a few more during meals.

The quality of sleep is also very important for the heart.

Although people's sleep needs are different, aim for 8 hours of good, undisturbed sleep./ CNA
