Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a preventable leading cause of death, and in 2021 it was responsible for 19.1 million deaths globally. Comorbid conditions like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes along with risk factors of family history and lifestyle habits all contribute to the burden and progression of CVD.
Primary prevention of CVD can be achieved with appropriate management of the different comorbidities coupled with good lifestyle choices. Eating a well-balanced diet coupled with exercise and being tobacco free are some of the different ways to achieve an improved state of health, well-being and decrease one's risk of CVD.Join us to learn about the comprehensive care offered, ask questions, and tour the premises.
