  5. Treatment for heart attacks A variety of heart attack treatments are available to help you in the event of a heart attack. If your blood work shows evidence of an attack or you show abnormal EKG characteristics, treatment should begin immediately. Recovery from a heart attack depends greatly on not only the severity of your heart attack but also how quickly it was treated and stopped, preventing further damage to the heart muscle. If the attack was stopped very quickly, there may be no damage at all.

  6. How to prevent a heart attack Following a healthy diet is an important part of a heart healthy lifestyle. A healthy diet includes a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. It also includes lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, and fat-free or low-fat milk or milk products. A healthy diet is low in saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, sodium (salt), and added sugars.
