Heart disease prevention or protection can be classified into modifiable(can be changed) and non-modifiable(cannot change)

For the modifiable factors can be controlled with a little will power. These include healthy balanced diet, active lifestyle and exercise, and smoking cessation.

For the things you cant change that lead to heart disease, theres really nothing you can do. These include age(older, more prone to heart disease), sex (males have higher incidence), post-menopausal women, family history of heart disease and high cholesterol(cant change your genes!).

Theres a lot more, but I gave you the more common ones.

Answer 5

There are a number of risk factors known to contribute to heart disease such as: age, sex, family history of heart disease, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus (and degree of control), etc.

Of these risk factors, we cannot do anything about some such as age, sex and family history.

There are other risk factors we CAN change. These are the things we can look at to protect ourselves from heart disease.

Quit smoking
Take up an active lifestyle
Have our blood pressure and cholesterol checked and if they are high we would need to take measures to lower them
o Low Salt Diet
o Low Fat Diet
o Exercise
o Reduce Stress
o Medications to treat high blood pressure or high cholesterol
Have our blood sugars checked for Diabetes, and if we have diabetes we would need to make sure we controlled our sugar levels very strictly.

Answer 6

" To be healthy we need an accurate balance of foods.

Some from the animal kingdom, and some from the vegetable kingdom.

When the balance between these two sources, favor one type of food, (Animal) more than another,( Vegetable )
then disease makes its entrance.

I suggest buying a Textbook on Physiological Biochemistry, so you may be able to answer your own questions. "
