So these risks are related to multiple factors coming together, not just one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How much your lifestyle really impact heart and brain health<\/p>\n<p>The neurologist points out that lifestyle choices play a crucial role in maintaining heart and <a class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/lifestyle\/health\/nhs-doctor-recommends-eating-blueberries-with-walnuts-reveals-why-they-are-great-for-brain-health-101769155095411.html\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"brain health\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">brain health<\/a>. \u201cHow much of your daily routine is actually dedicated to exercise, aerobics, or strength training? Even small habits, like 5 minutes of meditation or yoga, can help, but if you\u2019re stressed all day, it can offset the benefits. Smoking and alcohol consumption also contribute significantly. Blood pressure, sugar levels, and cholesterol all interact. That\u2019s why it\u2019s called multifactorial.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">Dr Sehrawat emphasises that while including fruits and vegetables in your diet is important, they are just one piece of the puzzle. \u201cThere is no one magical thing that can protect your heart or brain. It\u2019s about your overall daily life, the combination of regular exercise, a balanced diet, managing stress, mental wellness, and avoiding harmful habits, that truly makes a lasting difference for your cardiovascular and neurological health.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">She concludes by reminding readers that consistency matters more than quick fixes. \u201cSmall, positive choices every day add up over time. Focusing on a holistic lifestyle rather than chasing a single \u2018miracle\u2019 food is what will keep your heart strong and your mind sharp in the long run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">Note to readers: This article is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice.
