But, with lifestyle changes, unhealthy eating habits, keeping your heart healthy seems a tad bit difficult as these habits are the main trigger of heart disease.

Lack of awareness about heart diseases is one of the major problems that delays diagnosis and treatment of heart disease.  Many people are unaware about the fact that heart disease is not a single disorder or a condition and refers to a group of diseases or problems in the heart where the heart or the blood vessels  that supply blood to the heart are damaged and do not function properly.
