The advice that protects your heart hasn't changed in a generation, but the way we apply it has. Small, sustainable shifts beat dramatic overhauls every time.

Eat for blood vessels, not for diets

Berries, oats, nuts and oily fish keep showing up in the evidence. You don't have to overhaul your fridge, just make sure something from that list lands on your plate most days.

Move a little, often

Twenty minutes of brisk walking, five days a week, has a bigger long-term effect than a single intense session at the weekend.
