World Heart Day 2025: "Don't Miss a Beat"

Ankur Nikam

DON'T MISS A BEAT:

World Heart Day, September 29. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the world’s leading killer. This year, we're making a commitment to keep our hearts strong, together.

Are You Listening?

Early signs matter. Don't dismiss that shortness of breath, unexplained fatigue, or chest discomfort. Ignoring the whispers can lead to a shout. Your body is talking, listen to it.

 Your Heart's Vital Stats: 

Prevention starts with knowledge. Get regular check-ups and know your "Big Four": Blood Pressure, Cholesterol, Blood Sugar, BMI (Body Mass Index)

Keep the Beat Strong:

Your heart is a muscle, it needs exercise! Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week. Even a brisk walk can cut your CVD risk significantly. Move more, live longer.

The Heart-Smart Plate: 

What you eat powers your pump. Choose foods rich in fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants. LIMIT: Salt, processed foods, and sugar, EAT MORE: Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.

Breathe. Your Heart Needs Calm:

Chronic stress raises blood pressure and can damage arteries. Make time for mindfulness, yoga, or hobbies. When you manage your mind, you protect your heart.

Quit the Quitters:

Smoking is one of the single biggest risks for heart disease. It damages nearly every organ, including your heart. If you smoke, the best beat you can keep is your last one. Get support to quit today.

A Global Mission:

Heart disease affects us all. Share your commitment and knowledge with your family, friends, and community. Together, we can drive change and ensure equitable heart health for every generation.

DON'T MISS A BEAT. TAKE THE PLEDGE:

Commit to your heart health. Your life depends on it. #WorldHeartDay #DontMissABeat
