The places where the patients lived did not seem to make a big difference. Professor Teo said low-income countries had the worst diet. But he added that people from wealthier countries did not do much better. Only about 4% of the patients studied followed their doctors' advice.
Koon Teo said people in all countries need to study the findings to try to improve healthy living -- especially those who have already suffered a heart attack or stroke.
National and international efforts to get people to watch their blood pressure and reduce the amount of salt in their diet are getting more common. Both reduce the threat of heart attack or stroke.
Janet Wright is with the Million Hearts campaign in the United States. She advises people to make one small change in their lifestyle and follow the change every day. She said it could be adding a fruit or a vegetable. Or, the change could be building up to 150 minutes of exercise each week.
Michael Roizen of the Cleveland Clinic says the most important point is to get started. He suggests buying a pedometer, a device that measures the number of steps taken. Then, he says, record that total daily and try to walk 10,000 steps each day.
And, say the experts, if you take blood-pressure medicine, take it as your doctor ordered.不同国家和地区的病人的表现似乎没有很大不同。特奥教授表示，低收入国家人们的饮食习惯最差，但他补充，中高收入国家的病人也没有做得太好。在所有被调查的患者中，只有约4%的患者能遵从医嘱。
库恩·特奥表示，各国人们需重视这些研究发现并努力采取健康的生活方式，尤其是那些已患有心脏病或中风的病人。
国内外正日益普及对血压监测和低盐摄入的号召和推广，因为这两种方法都能减少心脏病或中风的威胁。
珍妮特·莱特是美国“百万心脏”行动的工作人员。她建议人们在生活方式上做一点小改变并持之以恒。这点小改变可以是在饮食中增加一种水果或蔬菜，又或是逐步加强锻炼，如每周锻炼150分钟。
克里夫兰医疗中心的迈克·罗尔森认为最重要的是付诸于行动。他建议人们买一个计步器——一种测量步数的仪器，用它来记录每天总共走了多少步，并尽量做到日行一万步。
同时专家们表示，如果服用降压药，请务必遵从医嘱。
