Understand Your Risks to Prevent a Heart Attack


Knowledge is power, so get a handle on the risks you face right away.


Extensive research has identified factors that increase a person’s risk of coronary heart disease in general and heart attack in particular. The more risk factors you have, and the greater the level of each risk factor, the higher your chance of developing coronary heart disease — a common term for the buildup of plaque in the heart’s arteries that could lead to heart attack.


  1. Major risk factors  
  2. Modifiable risk factors
  3. Contributing risk factors

Meds Can't Work If You Don't TakeThem



Only one in five patients seeking specialist for resistant HBP takes meds as prescribed


Researchers found: 

  • 20 percent of patients were taking all their medication and 20 percent none of their medication.
  • 31 percent of patients either improved or lessened their medication compliance.
  • After six months, average daytime systolic blood pressure fell two points (mm Hg) more in control patients than in those who had renal denervation, but remained abnormally high in both groups.
  • Among patients with similar blood levels of medication at each assessment, systolic blood pressure fell 3.3 points more in those who received the procedure than in controls.

Q: Are all sugars bad?



A:  No, but added sugars add calories and zero nutrients to food. Adding a limited amount of sugars to foods that provide important nutrients

—such as whole-grain cereal, flavored milk or yogurt

—to improve their taste, especially for children, is a better use of added sugars than nutrient-poor, highly sweetened foods.
