Interesting Fact About Cardiovascular Disease Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally, responsible for approximately 17.9 million deaths each year, which accounts for 31% of all global deaths. The majority of these deaths are due to heart attacks and strokes, many of which are preventable through healthy lifestyle choices like regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking. Another interesting fact is that women are often underdiagnosed when it comes to heart disease. Despite the common belief that CVD primarily affects men, heart disease is the leading cause of death for women worldwide. Symptoms in women can be less obvious, which sometimes leads to delays in treatment. #30dayschallengewithkelly #Healthfacts

Therefore, beginning today, on World Heart Day, let’s commit to practicing a healthy lifestyle every day to safeguard our heart health, which is as vital as life itself.
