While gallbladder disease may have genetic components, it does not keep track of the last generation affected. It can "skip" a generation or affect the children of affected patients.

i think cardiovascular diseases are common in the United States because of all the junk food that we eat and the lack of exersise. Many Americans would rather watch T.V than exersise.

Yes, a bicuspid aortic valve can be repaired if it is diseased. The procedure usually involves a small incision and the valve will either be repaired, or more often, replaced with a synthetic valve.

The pathologic, physiologic, or biochemical mechanism results in the development of congenital heart disease. Congenital conditions exist at birth and may be hereditary or may occur during gestation up to the moment of birth.

Adults should get seasonal influenza vaccine annually.

The defibrillator was invented by William B. Kouwenhoven in 1930. He studied the relation between the electric shocks and its effects on human heart and tested it on a dog. In 1947 Dr. Carl Beck tested the technique on a human patient and saved his life.

Coronary artery disease and high blood pressure are the main risk factors for congestive heart failure.

All the cell of your body are affected by heart disease. The cells of the body need the oxygen and nutrients carried by blood in order to survive. The heart pumps blood. If the heart is unable to adequately pump blood, the cells do not get what they need in order to survive, and will eventually die. Heart disease can be managed by your health care provider, and there are means to make the heart pump better in order to prolong the life of the cells that we need so much to survive.

Staying healthy is not just a matter of getting exercise or taking vitamins. It can also involve the foods we eat. A person who wants to have a healthy heart should avoid smoking; as for what to eat, a heart-healthy diet has fruits and vegetables and lean meats in it. It does not have much junk food in it-- eating too much fatty or high-calorie foods, as well as eating a lot of fried foods, can be very bad for the health of your heart, and can lead to clogging of your arteries.

Three ways to make healthful choices would be to think before you drink; the best thing is plain water the worst is a soda, or even worse alcohol. Second would be think before you eat; the best is fresh natural unprocessed whole food and the worst is anything and everything that is deep fried. Third way would be to think before you lay down; the best thing would be that you did some exercise during the day and the worst would be if the last time you got up and did anything was the day before. If that's the case, promise yourself that you will do better tomorrow. Then, do your best to keep your promise. You see, changing habits is not really as easy as it sounds, just ask anyone that has tried to do that by making too many changes in a short period of time. That is a recipe for frustration and failure. Be patient with yourself and take small steps, one at a time, and after a while you will be surprised at how much progress you've made.
