Blood pressure
Blood pressure is the force exerted by circulating blood on the walls of blood vessels. High blood pressure, or hypertension, puts one at risk for health complications like heart attack, stroke, kidney disease and dementia. It has many risk factors including age, family history, obesity, excessive salt intake, chronic stress, smoking, and excessive alcohol intake. Blood pressure is measured using a sphygmomanometer and levels are categorized as normal, prehypertension, or stage 1 or 2 hypertension based on systolic and diastolic readings. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can be managed through lifestyle changes like a healthy diet low in salt and high in fruits/vegetables, regular exercise, weight control, limiting alcohol and managing stress through
Heart attack
Heart disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. Risk factors for heart attacks include physical factors like family history, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, lack of exercise, and high cholesterol. Emotional factors like Type A personality, anger, hostility, depression, and hopelessness can also increase risk. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through diet, exercise, and managing stress levels can help prevent heart attacks.

High Cholesterol power point show
High cholesterol is a condition where too much cholesterol circulates in the blood, putting one at risk for heart disease, the leading cause of death in the US. Cholesterol can build up in arteries and reduce blood flow to the heart. There are usually no symptoms of high cholesterol, which is detected through a blood test. Risk factors include smoking, obesity, poor diet, lack of exercise, and high blood pressure. Treatment involves medications like statins to lower cholesterol levels and lifestyle changes such as losing weight, eating healthier, and exercising daily.
Heart Disease
Heart disease is the number one cause of death worldwide. It is caused by a buildup of fatty deposits called plaque in the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart. This buildup is known as atherosclerosis and can lead to coronary artery disease. Risk factors include age, family history, high cholesterol, smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and physical inactivity. To prevent heart disease, one should eat a healthy diet low in fat and cholesterol, exercise regularly, maintain a healthy weight, not smoke, control blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and see a doctor to monitor risk factors. Making lifestyle changes can significantly reduce risk and help live a longer, healthier life.

Maintaining healthy lifestyle habits and cholesterol levels through diet and supplements can help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Heart Disease
Coronary heart disease is caused by a build-up of fatty materials in the arteries called atherosclerosis, which restricts blood flow to the heart. Risk factors include age, gender, family history, diabetes, smoking, and diet. Symptoms include chest pain, breathlessness, and sweating. Treatment involves lifestyle changes like exercise and diet to prevent heart disease, along with drugs or surgery if needed.
How to control High Cholesterol
High cholesterol can lead to heart attacks, strokes, and peripheral artery disease by causing atherosclerosis and blocking artery blood flow. Normal and elevated cholesterol levels are defined for triglycerides, LDL ("bad") cholesterol, and HDL ("good") cholesterol. Lifestyle changes like a healthy diet low in oils, dairy, alcohol and red meat, maintaining a healthy weight through exercise and calorie control, and avoiding fast food and restaurant meals can help control cholesterol levels without medication. Monitoring cholesterol levels regularly through lipid profile tests is important when making decisions about medication and treatment.
High blood pressure
High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is when the force of blood against artery walls is too high. It is measured by two numbers, systolic and diastolic pressure. High blood pressure can be caused by factors like age, weight, diet, stress, and family history. Symptoms may include headaches, confusion, and vision changes. Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, and medication to control blood pressure and reduce health risks. Regular checkups are important to monitor blood pressure levels.

CVDs & their MNTs
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are disorders of the heart and blood vessels. The document discusses four common CVDs: coronary artery disease, stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral arterial disease. Coronary artery disease is caused by plaque buildup in the arteries supplying the heart. Stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is blocked or reduced. Myocardial infarction, also called a heart attack, happens when blood flow to the heart is reduced or stopped. Peripheral arterial disease is caused by blockages in the arteries supplying the arms and legs. The document provides details on the causes, risk factors, symptoms, tests, and treatment recommendations for managing these four cardiovascular conditions.
Obesity management
Obesity results from an energy imbalance where more calories are consumed than expended. It can be caused by genetic and environmental factors like diet, activity levels, and lifestyle. Managing obesity involves creating a caloric deficit through diet and exercise. Regular physical activity is important for weight maintenance even without substantial weight loss, as it provides significant health benefits and lowers disease risk. Behavioral modification techniques can also help prevent weight regain after weight loss is achieved.
