Understanding Cardiovascular Health
Cardiovascular health is crucial for overall well-being. The heart, as the central organ of the circulatory system, plays a vital role in maintaining and distributing blood throughout the body. Therefore, understanding its functions, risks, and preventive measures is essential.
What is Cardiovascular Disease?
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) refers to a range of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. These include:
- Coronary Artery Disease: A condition that narrows or blocks the arteries of the heart.
- Heart Attacks: Occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked.
- Arrhythmias: Irregular heartbeats that can lead to complications.
- Heart Failure: A chronic condition that affects the heart's ability to pump blood.
The causes of cardiovascular diseases are numerous, including lifestyle factors such as poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption.
