Eating too many fried foods
Delicious and delectable, fried foods are unfortunately little morsels of heart-harming bombs that studies have found can raise your risk of heart failure by 68 percent! Granted, you’ve got to scarf down fried treats upwards of seven times a week for that much increased chance, but even one to two times a week equaled an 18 percent greater risk.
Letting your stress go unchecked
Failing to deal with emotional issues can be just as risky to your heart health as failing to exercise or eat healthy, so make sure to take stock of your mental health regularly. Stress can put pressure on your heart by raising adrenaline along with making you more likely to engage in bad habits such as smoking, drinking, and overeating.
