Here's a couple reasons why you should care:
Cardiovascular disease is the underlying cause of death in approximately 1 out of every 3 deaths per year.
Data shows that at least 48% of all adults in the US have some form of cardiovascular disease, such as coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure or high blood pressure.
Cardiovascular diseases claims more lives annually than all types of cancer and chronic lower respiratory disease combined.
Every 40 seconds, an American will have a heart attack and need immediate medical care.
Approximately 80% of premature heart disease and strokes are preventable.
The majority of deadly outcomes from cardiovascular disease and stroke could have been prevented with lifestyle tweaks or relatively inexpensive and widely available medications.
By adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors you can significantly reduce risk of heart disease.
Dr. Askari will provide some tangible tips to help you promote the health and longevity of your heart and I will provide a heart healthy snack =)
