The major modifiable risk factors for #atherosclerosis – lifestyle, hypertension, #diabetes and cholesterol – collectively account for 80 to 90% of disease burden.
Patients that survived a first ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) only 7% met all #lifestyle-related risk targets, whereas 10% met none: 30% persist smoking, 79% was overweight / obese, and 45% reported insufficient physical activity (<150 minutes per week).
Ever tried to #change your ways? Fight the problems you’ve created for yourself, often knowingly? That’s why fighting the #Covid19 for us humans is so hard.
