eat a healthy balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. also, do a little cardio a few times a week but remember to rest some days. walk 2 miles every day, be happy, have good friends and family to support you, and reduce as much stress as possible from your life. i suggest to meditate or do yoga to reduce stress, its awsome. but remember that its okay to eat a hamburger every once in a while or to be lazy sometimes, just dont do it all the time! i hope that helps

Well cut back on all fatty foods such as hamburgers, french fries, hot dogs, fried Chicken, red meat steak, pork fingers, anything with a lot of fat in it.
Eat bakes fish bake potatoes, bake chicken breast without the skin, lots of green veg. lot of yellow veggies. Beats, carrots peas the whole veggie group.
Run or walk at least 2 mile a day, there is more but that is all I know that you can do.
There are books call the healthy heart you can read some of those to get more ideas on what to do to maintain a healthy heart.

Eat a variety of nutritious foods from all the food groups. You may be eating plenty of food, but your body may not be getting the nutrients it needs to be healthy. Nutrient-rich foods have vitamins, minerals, fiber and other nutrients but are also lower in calories.

Lots of fruits, mixed vegetables, daily supplement of vitamins and minerals, proper breathing technique, and adequate rest based on your daily routine. Include scheduled timeouts from stressfull activity for recreation and laughter and avoid emotional roller coastering and too much alcohol.

Stay away from "cloggers", exercise make choices from the basic food groups. If you don't, it will catch up to you and you'll be another person who needs a stent implant or a by-pass.
