• If you suffer from any kind of heart condition and have previously had stress test, you may want to consult your cardiologist before you pack your bags. Ask your cardiologist about your rate pressure product or RPP, or your ‘angina threshold’. RPP can determine an estimated weight that a person can carry without risking angina symptoms to be provoked.

• You would surely want to snack while you are travelling. But, at the same time you would want to look after your heart health too. One of the best heart-healthy snack are nuts including walnuts, macadamias, and almonds. You can easily carry some nut on you as your travel around. Even the best plastic surgeon in Mumbai recommends nut, not just for heart but for a better skin too.

• If you are travelling via airplane, make sure that you walk across the aisle at least once every hour, for some time so as to keep your blood circulation healthy and to avoid blood clots.

• With heart conditions often comes digestive issues too. To avoid such digestive issue, make sure that you have your meal on time to be as close to your customary habits.
