00:007 Surprising Morning Habits That Could Actually Raise Your Risk of Heart Disease
00:04The right morning habits make all the difference in your heart health.
00:09Your diet, exercise, and family history play a significant role,
00:13but your everyday choices upon waking can support a healthier heart or raise heart disease risk.
00:19Dr. Michael Genovese, MD, Chief Medical Advisor at Ascendant NY,
00:24shares 7 surprising morning habits that could be taking a toll on your heart.
00:288. Hitting Snooze
00:30Repeatedly hitting snooze breaks, sleep cycles, and stresses the cardiovascular system,
00:36raising blood pressure and heart rate.
00:38Keep your alarm across the room and immediately open curtains for natural light to reset your circadian rhythm.
00:44Skipping breakfast or just grabbing sugar?
00:47Rushing out without eating or consuming sugary foods leads to insulin swings which strain blood vessels.
00:53Dr. Genovese recommends balanced protein, fiber, and healthy fats.
00:59Greek yogurt with fruit, eggs with whole grain toast, or overnight oats with nut butter.
01:05Checking your phone right away.
01:07Many reach for phones before even getting out of bed, but this can cause stress,
01:12triggering cortisol and adrenaline surges that stress the heart.
01:15Try resisting for 20 to 30 minutes and instead stretch, hydrate, or practice deep breathing.
01:23Forgetting to hydrate
01:24Your body naturally loses fluids overnight.
01:28Skipping water can make the heart work harder and raises morning heart attack risk
01:32because overnight dehydration thickens blood.
01:36Drink a full glass of water before caffeine, possibly with electrolytes or lemon.
01:41Failing to exercise
01:43Heading straight into your day without movement can reduce morning circulation,
01:49stiffen blood vessels, and raise blood pressure, Dr. Genovese warns.
01:53Even 10 to 15 minutes of light activity like yoga, stretching, or a quick walk can lower morning blood pressure.
02:01Too much coffee
02:02If you love morning coffee, be careful overloading can spike blood pressure and stress hormones.
02:08Dr. Genovese suggests hydrating first and eating something small before enjoying your caffeine once your body is ready.
02:16Going straight into your stressful commute
02:18The stress of traffic releases stress hormones, causes poor posture, and increases tension,
02:25all elevating blood pressure and heart rate.
02:27Give yourself a buffer, leave earlier, listen to calming music, or take a short walk before commuting.
