The generic term Heart disease is often used to describe the wide variety of disorders that can affect the heart. These conditions include cardiovascular diseases involving the narrowing or blockage of blood vessels, heart rhythm problems, infections that causes problems with the heart muscle or valves and congenital heart defects.

Many of these diseases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle. Eating right, getting plenty of exercise and quitting smoking are ways to reduce cholesterol and oxidative stress. This lowers your risk for cardiovascular and other Heart diseases.
