If you wish to prevent a heart attack, you need exercise, preferably running. If you cannot run for 20 to 30 minutes, a few times a week, you are at risk.
The body wants to moderately breath hard, hyperventilate, after brisk exercise. That is your heart savior.
You have been forewarned. :-)
It still amazes me how so many people read next to mothing about maintaining health. It makes me wish I had becomes a Doctor so that I could ply patients with useless drugs. So many patients buy into snake oil drugs.
“So many patients buy into snake oil drugs”
Funny that you say that. If I remember correctly it is derived from snake venom, lol. I had the same dry cough, quit that stupidity. My BP is normal for the most part. Just going to the VA raises my BP though, never seen a bunch so lacking in critical thinking skills. I now take Garlic bulb, Olive leaf, or Hawthorn Berries for the problem from time to time. Trying to be a happy person helps, lol.

Running won’t *prevent* heart attacks. Ask Jim Fixx, author of the best seller “The Complete Book of Running”.
Oh, wait. You can’t. He keeled over dead of a heart attack.
At 52.
While jogging.
Not that you’re completely incorrect, but when God calls you, you’re gonna go.
