A heart attack does not always happen suddenly without warning. Some possible signs may include:

⚠️ Chest pain, pressure, tightness or discomfort

⚠️ Pain spreading to the arm, shoulder, back, neck or jaw

⚠️ Shortness of breath 😮‍💨

⚠️ Unusual sweating 💦

⚠️ Nausea or vomiting 🤢

⚠️ Unusual weakness, fatigue or dizziness

🚑 If these symptoms occur suddenly or are severe, seek emergency medical care immediately. Do not try to manage a suspected heart attack at home.

🥗 Nutrients and foods important for heart health include:

🐟 Omega-3 fats – found in oily fish

🥑 Healthy unsaturated fats – avocado, nuts and seeds

🥬 Potassium – fruits and vegetables

🌾 Dietary fibre – whole grains, beans, fruits and vegetables

🍊 Antioxidants and vitamins – colourful fruits and vegetables

🫘 Magnesium – nuts, seeds, legumes and whole grains

❤️ Remember: Good nutrition can support heart health, but it cannot replace emergency treatment during a heart attack.

Your heart works for you every second—take care of it! ❤️🫀
