Cardiovascular diseases can be defined as conditions that affect the heart or the blood vessels. It affects the structure and function of the heart. There are several cardiovascular diseases that a responsible for heart conditions across the globe. A sedentary lifestyle and dietary habits are responsible for cardiovascular disease and other factors such as a family history or previous heart condition might also be the reason for cardiovascular diseases. The main cause of the cardiovascular disease is lifestyle issues and a fat-rich diet which makes the arteries narrow and blocks the supply of blood. The arteries get narrowed due to the accumulation of plaque or high cholesterol which is made up of fat that deposits in the arteries eventually blocking the pathway for blood circulation. This ultimately causes a decrease in blood flow and a lot of heart-related problems.
