Cardiovascular Disease Almost Always Has Warning Signs | JQJO

A new study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology found that over 99% of cardiovascular disease cases, including heart attacks and strokes, were preceded by at least one traditional risk factor. Researchers analyzed data from hundreds of thousands of cases, highlighting the importance of managing modifiable factors like blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, and smoking. Experts emphasize that addressing even mild elevations of these factors through lifestyle changes or medication can significantly reduce risk and promote longevity.
