The second step is to Manage Daily Stress. Joe Piscatella looks at different kinds of stress and provides examples of the mental and physical things individuals can do to manage stress more effectively. The third step is to Make Exercise A Habit . Barry Franklin covers the effectiveness of exercise on reducing cardiovascular risk and gives some practical examples such as training with weights and exercising with a partner or in a group. The fourth step is to Balance Your Diet. Joe Piscatella sets out four principles for heart-healthy eating. He continues by explaining how to apply these principles in grocery stores, in the kitchen and in restaurants. Dr. Franklin provides the final step which is to Utilize Drug Therapy.
