What you can do to reduce the risk of stroke?

Become more physically active. Exercising helps to lower blood pressure
(high blood pressure is the single biggest risk factor for stroke), controls
weight, helps create a healthy balance of blood fats and improves your
body's ability to handle insulin. Aim to do some kind of moderate physical
activity for 30 minutes for at least five days of the week.

1.. Eat a healthy diet. Fresh fruit and vegetables are rich sources of
antioxidant vitamins and minerals, which research has found, reduces the
risk of stroke. A high consumption of salt has been linked to high blood
pressure, while too much saturated fat can lead to atherosclerosis (furring
of the arteries)
2.. Stay a healthy weight. Being overweight is a risk of a stroke.
3.. Don't smoke. Smoking increases your risk of stroke because it causes
atherosclerosis (furring of the arteries) and makes the blood more likely to
clot.
4.. Drink sensibly. Watching your alcohol intake can help you avoid
stroke. Avoid heavy drinking, especially drinking large amounts of alcohol
in one go, as this can cause blood pressure to soar. Don't drink every day.
Try to have at least a couple of alcohol-free days a week.
5.. Get your blood pressure checked. All adults should have their blood
pressure checked at least once every five years (more often is they have
high blood pressure), are taking medication or have other underlying
conditions.
