Heart Health For The Whole Family

 - Did you know that taking care of our heart health is important for the entire family?

Today, we're checking in with an expert for some tips on what parents can do to help their kids take care of their own hearts.

First, make sure your kids are getting exercise in their day.

- Being sedentary, they're gonna build up plaques in their blood vessels.

They should be active at least 60 minutes a day.

That can help their heart being strong.

To help kids achieve that goal, also recommends limiting screen time.

- When they are using these electronic gadgets with the screen, they are not being active.

I recommend parents that they restrict their kids' screen time to be less than two hours a day.

And finally, make sure your kids are getting enough sleep to help their hearts remain healthy.

- Seven hours of uninterrupted sleep to have every night.

They will have less high blood pressure.
