Purpose Of Review:
This literature review is intended to highlight recent correlations between urologic, heart and overall health by emphasizing healthy eating patterns, physical activity, alcohol minimization and tobacco elimination, healthy sleep, weight, cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure management, and mental health awareness.
Recent Findings:
Meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and clinical studies espouse a unified message for prevention, reducing the risk of disease recurrence, progression, complementing conventional medical intervention efficacy, and mitigating treatment side effects. Limiting or eliminating alcohol consumption could be considered an independent recommendation and adding a mental health and miscellaneous (genetic risk and lifestyle, planetary health, HPV or other vaccination awareness, spirituality, etc.) category could allow for individualized educational opportunities, synergism appreciation, and self-improvement. Urologic healthcare professionals have the potential to strengthen the collective public health goal of improving the quality and quantity of the lives of patients able to adhere to these heart healthy recommendations.
