Risk Factors cardiovascular disease


Risk factors for heart disease include:
Age. Simply recognize the risk of damage to the heart muscle and arteries narrow and weaken or thickening, which contribute to heart disease.
Sex. Men are at higher risk of heart disease. However, an increased risk for women after menopause.
Family history. Family history of heart disease increases the risk of coronary heart disease, especially if the parents develop it at an early age (before age 55 for men's brother, father and 65 for women like mother, sister).
Smoke. Nicotine constricts blood vessels, and carbon monoxide can damage the inner lining, making them prone to atherosclerosis. Heart attacks are more common in smokers than non-smokers.
Poor diet. A diet high doses of salt, fat and cholesterol may contribute to the development of heart disease.
Hypertension. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to hardening and thickening of the arteries, narrowing the blood vessels.
High blood cholesterol. The level of cholesterol in the blood can increase the risk of atherosclerotic plaques. Arrays can be caused by a high level of low density lipoproteins (LDLs), called "bad" cholesterol, or low levels of high density lipoproteins (HDLs), is called "good" cholesterol.
Diabetes. Diabetes increases the risk of heart disease. Both conditions share similar risk factors, such as obesity and high blood pressure.
Obesity. Excess weight is usually heavier other risk factors.
No physical activity. Lack of exercise is also associated with many forms of heart disease and a number of other risk factors of it.
High stress. Not relieve stress in your life can damage the arteries, as well as exacerbate other risk factors for heart disease.
Poor hygiene. No frequent hand washing and other habits can help prevent viral or bacterial infection can set in cardiac risk of infection, especially if you have a potential heart disease. The researchers also believe that poor oral health may contribute to heart disease. Germs on your teeth and gums can come from your mouth to your heart, potentially worsening coronary artery disease.
