Podcast: Keeping Your Child's Heart Healthy
In this episode of Kids Health Cast, Dr. Amanda Lin discusses what parents should know about keeping their child's heart healthy. She gives guidance around nutrition and exercise that the whole family can use to prevent cardiovascular disease. She reviews the importance of overall health, including ways of managing obesity, addressing family history of heart conditions, and tips for moderation. She also discusses cardiac abnormalities and assessments of cardiac health that children can do with their pediatrician prior to participating in sport activities.
