In medicine the only cure is never to let it happen. So you can bypass the heart problems by eliminating risks factors like smoking, being overweight, controlling your cholesterol levels, controlling high blood pressure and controlling diabetes. Tackle each risk like a line backer of a football game. The best defense is a strong offense. What I mean is everything you do is with risk, what you eat, drink, smoke and think. I come across people that were very young around 25 that have heart disease; I have seen 40 year old people drop dead at home. The underlying factor to all of that is stress, and stress leads to consuming high risk foods. Exercise is your ticket to reducing most of life’s stress. The human body is designed to be active and not sit around and collect dust.
