My Father who is 72 years old faced Brain Stroke on 31st Dec 2022 and right side paralysis, he is still not recovered, inspite of continous physiotherapy. Can I (39 years old) also have a change for stroke, how can we avoid that.

Ans: Hello Amit,
To reduce the chances of stroke or any disease for that matter a healthy lifestyle is important.
You need to take care of the 4 pillars of wellness: 1) Nutrition 2) Exercises 3) Mindfulness and meditation 4)Sleep/restfulness.
1) Regarding nutrition it will be better to go to a proper nutritionist who can guide you depending on your body type. However overall including fruits, nuts, seeds, salads, vegetable juices can help to prevent chances of stroke.
2) Various forms of exercises including walking, yoga, strength training, cardiovascular training should be done for 45 -60 minutes 4-5 times a week.
3) It will be good to practice 10 minutes of some form of mindfulness/meditation technique like focusing on breathing etc.
4) Deep sleep and to feel rested from within is also important.
All the above 4 you can discuss with a good lifestyle coach and hence reduce the chances of stroke.
All the best!
