Zimapezeka kuti "wachichepere pamtima" si mawu chabe - mtima wanu sumakalamba monga momwe thupi lanu limakhalira. Zaka za ticker yanu zitha kukhala zosiyana kwambiri ndi zaka zomwe zili pa laisensi yanu yoyendetsa, malinga ndi lipoti latsopano lochokera ku U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). (Mutha kuwerengera zaka za mtima wanu pano ngati muli pakati pa zaka 30 ndi 74.)

Koma kwa ambiri aife, iyi si nkhani yabwino. Kafukufukuyu akuwonetsa kuti pafupifupi 75 peresenti ya anthu aku America ali ndi zaka zamtima wamkulu kuposa zaka zawo zenizeni ndi 40% ya azimayi ali ndi zaka zamtima wazaka zisanu kapena kupitilira zaka zawo. Yekes-wina watipatsa chakumwa kuchokera ku kasupe wa unyamata STAT. (Koma, FYI, Biological Age Matters Oposa Zaka Zakubadwa.)

Ofufuzawo adasanthula deta kuchokera kumayiko onse ndikupeza kuti akulu 69 miliyoni ku US akugwira ntchito ndi mitima yakale kuposa iwo, ndikusiyana kwakukulu kumayiko akumwera. Ndipo, nthawi zambiri, zimakhala chifukwa cha zifukwa zomwe zingatheke komanso zopewera: kuthamanga kwa magazi, cholesterol yambiri, kusuta, kunenepa kwambiri, zakudya zopanda thanzi, kusachita masewera olimbitsa thupi, kapena matenda a shuga.

Nanga n’cifukwa ciani tiyenela kusamala ngati mtima wathu ukukalamba kwambili kuposa thupi lathu lonse? Zaka za mtima wanu ndizomwe zimayambitsa ngozi zambiri zaumoyo. Ngati mtima wanu ndi wokalamba kuposa zaka zomwe mwawerengera, mutha kukhala pachiwopsezo chachikulu chokhala ndi zovuta zambiri zaumoyo monga matenda amtima ndi sitiroko.

Koma musachite mantha, mtima wanu sudzapatsidwa mwayi wopuma pantchito msanga. Ngakhale kuti zinthu zina zomwe zimayambitsa zaka za mtima zimakhala zachibadwa, zambiri zomwe zimapangitsa kuti mtima ukalamba ndi kusankha zochita zomwe mungathe kuzilamulira. Kuti muchepetse msinkhu wa mtima wanu, sungani cholesterol yanu, khalani ndi moyo wokangalika, idyani zathanzi, onetsetsani kuti kuthamanga kwa magazi kuli koyenera, ndipo chilichonse chomwe mungachite, siyani kusuta.

Mwambiri, moyo wathanzi umatanthauza mtima wathanzi. Chifukwa chake mpaka titapeza kasupe wachinyamata, onetsetsani kuti mukupanga zisankho zomwe zingasunge mtima wanu, osati thupi lanu lokha. (Koma Chiyembekezo cha Moyo Chotalika Kwa Akazi Padziko Lonse, ndiye ... zokongoletsa zasiliva?)
