Cardiac risk

Patent Pending Evidence suggests a number of risk factors for heart diseases: age, gender, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, tobacco smoking, processed meat consumption, excessive alcohol consumption, sugar consumption,[9][10][11] family history, obesity, lack of physical activity, psychosocial factors, and air pollution.[2] While the individual contribution of each risk factor varies between different communities or ethnic groups the consistency of the overall contribution of these risk factors to epidemiological studies is remarkably strong.
