Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US, accounting for 24% of annual deaths and costing $230 billion each year? Yikes! And here's another shocker: a study from the University of Texas found that the US also has one of the highest mortality rates among high-income countries regarding heart attacks.But wait, it's not just a problem for men. In fact, 50% of expectant women between the ages of 20 and 44 have poor heart health before becoming pregnant, according to a study from Northwestern University. Unfortunately, women between 18 and 55 who visit an emergency room with chest pains receive less urgent care, have to wait longer, and are less likely to be admitted for observation to diagnose a heart attack.Heart disease can refer to several conditions that affect people of any age, gender, or family history. Risk factors include smoking, poor diet, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, lack of exercise, stress, and even poor dental health.The good news is that we can take steps to reduce the risk of heart disease, like maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking and excessive drinking. Let's all work together to protect our heart health and seek proper care and attention when needed.[0:00:30]: Heading: Heart Disease: The Leading Cause of Death in the US[0:02:43]: "Women and Heart Disease: Examining the Gender Disparity in Diagnosis and Treatment"[0:05:04]: Overview of Heart Disease: Causes, Risk Factors, and Complications[0:08:11]: Risk Factors for Heart Disease: A Discussion[0:09:53]: Symptoms of a Heart Attack: What to Look Out For[0:11:41]: Heading: Understanding the Symptoms of Heart Disease and How to Lower Risk[0:13:24]: "Health Hacks to Lower Your Risk of Heart Disease"[0:17:07]: Health Hacks for Heart Health: 30 Tips for a Healthier Heart[0:18:50]: "Tips for Lowering Your Risk of Heart Disease"[0:20:07]: "Taking Control of Your Heart Health: Tips for Reducing Risk Factors and Improving Well-Being"Don't miss an episode of What the Health!
