After a cardiac event, the road to recovery often involves significant changes in both physical activity and overall health habits. Cardiac rehabilitation and lifestyle medicine are central to this journey, with rehabilitation providing the essential physical exercise component, and lifestyle medicine emphasizing dietary adjustments, stress management, and smoking cessation. Together, they help patients manage risk factors such as hypertension, cholesterol, and weight, which are critical to preventing further cardiovascular issues. With the guidance of healthcare professionals, individuals learn to adopt healthier habits that significantly improve their heart health and overall quality of life.
