Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
How well do you know your heart?
Although heart disease is our nation’s greatest
health problem, we can face it today with increasing
hope and confidence. Through research, a vast
amount of knowledge about the heart and its functions
has been accumulated.
As studies continue, there is every justification to
anticipate further advances in diagnosis, treatment . . .
and perhaps even prevention . . . of various diseases
affecting the heart and blood vessels.
While heart disease is a challenge to medical research,
it is also a challenge to you. If you are informed
about the heart, you can help protect your
own and the hearts of your relatives and friends. The
following questions and answers may help you to know
your heart better . . . and give it the care it deserves.
• ls the heart strong and durable?
Yes . . . the healthy heart is one of the Strongest
organs in the body and it has remarkable reserves of
strength. Despite its immense task, a healthy heart
can be nearly as efficient as the years advance as it is
at age 20. Even at the older ages, a healthy heart is
fully capable of meeting the body's needs.
• Can you do anything to keep your
heart in good shape?
Yes . . . you can protect your heart by avoiding sudden
or prolonged exertion, watching your diet, avoiding
overweight, and by getting the sleep and rest you need.
You should also have a medical examination every
year. Then if heart trouble is found, prompt treatment
may control it and make possible a long and nearly
normal way of life.
• Are all heart attacks serious?
Not necessarily . . . because some are mild and the
heart can repair itself with care and treatment. In
these cases, a person may usually resume normal
activities. Even when there are serious complications.
patients can often recover if the heart is helped to heal
itself. In fact, four out of five of those who withstand
their first coronary attack recover and continue to
work full time for many years.
• Are overweight and emotional tension
bad for the heart?
Yes . . . overweight taxes the heart and blood vessels,
according to many scientific studies. So, try to keep
your weight about equal to what you should have
weighed between ages 25 and 30. Emotional upsets
can make your heart beat faster and your blood pressure
go up.
• Can people with heart disease
lighten the heart's work?
Yes . . . if they learn how to care for an impaired
heart. Plenty of rest, protection against infection,
proper diet, and avoidance of hurry, worry and strenuous
activities can all help the affected heart to carry
on. Of course, treatment given by your doctor is important,
but the patient himself can do most to safeguard
the heart.
• Is heart disease more prevalent now?
No . . . not when you consider these facts: (1) more
people are living longer and reaching ages when the
heart's endurance naturally ebbs; (2) heart ailments
are diagnosed now with greater accuracy, whereas in
the past many deaths actually caused by heart disease
were blamed on other causes.
