Brrr! Winter is here, and while the frosty weather brings festive vibes, it also brings a chilly reminder: cold temperatures can increase the risk of heart attacks and worsen symptoms for those with underlying health conditions. 😟
But don’t worry—we’ve got some simple tips to help you stay warm and healthy:
🏠 Keep your home warm: Aim for at least 18°C in your living spaces, especially if you’re sitting still for long periods.
🧥 Layer up: Opt for multiple thin layers rather than one thick one to trap heat more effectively.
☕ Fuel your body: Enjoy hot drinks and warm, nourishing meals to maintain your core temperature.
🏃♀️ Stay active: Light movement, even walking around the house, helps boost circulation and keep you feeling toasty.
Don’t forget to check in on elderly neighbours or friends—they may need a little extra help staying warm. Let’s all keep safe, snug, and smiling this winter! ❤️
