Abstract
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a significant public health concern worldwide, necessitating effective prevention and management strategies. Lifestyle interventions play a crucial role in mitigating CVD risk factors, yet their efficacy and feasibility warrant further investigation.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of lifestyle interventions, including diet modification, exercise regimens, and stress management techniques, in both managing and preventing cardiovascular diseases.
Methods: A comprehensive review of existing literature was conducted to examine the impact of lifestyle interventions on CVD prevention and management. Relevant studies were identified through electronic databases, and data extraction and synthesis were performed to assess the efficacy and feasibility of various lifestyle interventions.
Results: The review highlighted the importance of lifestyle interventions in reducing CVD risk factors and improving overall cardiovascular health. Effective strategies included dietary modifications, regular exercise, and stress management techniques, which demonstrated significant benefits in both preventing and managing cardiovascular diseases.
Conclusion: Lifestyle interventions, encompassing dietary modifications, exercise regimens, and stress management techniques, are vital components of comprehensive cardiovascular disease prevention and management strategies. Further research is needed to optimize the implementation and scalability of these interventions for broader public health impact.
