Abans, together with Philips, has recently launched the ‘Save Your Heart’ campaign aimed at educating the general public in prevention of cardiovascular disease.
Globally, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and has been projected to remain so.
Cardiovascular diseases occur equally in both men and women. An estimated 17.3 million people died from cardiovascular diseases in 2008 alone.
The staggering number of deaths show that more people die annually from cardiovascular diseases than any other cause.
It is estimated that the number of deaths from cardiovascular diseases will reach 23.3 million by 2030.
Cardiovascular disease is often used to mean damage caused to your heart or blood vessels by atherosclerosis a buildup of fatty plaques in your arteries.
Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of cardiovascular disease, and it’s often caused amongst other factors by an unhealthy diet and being overweight.
Another risk factor of cardiovascular disease is related to serum cholesterol level.
In most populations, the serum total cholesterol level increases as age increases.
In men, this increase levels off around age 45 to 50 years.
In women, the increase continues sharply until age 60 to 65 years. People who have high blood cholesterol have a greater chance of getting coronary heart disease.
