  •   Hyperlipidemia is also called as high cholesterol. It is a major risk factor for Cardiovascular Disease & Atherosclerosis.   •   When high cholesterol is present in the blood, it builds up in the walls of arteries, so that arteries become narrowed and blood flow to the heart muscle gets reduced or blocked.   •   If heart does not get enough blood and oxygen then person can suffer from chest pain.   •   Heart attack occurs when the blood supply to heart muscles is completely cut off due to blockage.   •   Hyperlipidemia is easily treatable.

  • Some heart disease can be passed down through families. Monogenic conditions include uncommon disorders that mostly affect the heart's muscle (such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) or electrical system (such as long QT syndrome). Another example is familial hypercholesterolemia that causes very high cholesterol levels and can  lead to premature coronary artery disease (occurring before age 50). • The risk for heart disease can increase even more when heredity combines with unhealthy lifestyle choices such as smoking cigarettes, eating unhealthy diet, stressful lifestyle and lack of physical activities. • We can’t counteract genetics but we can certainly adapt healthy lifestyle choices (such as quit smoking, eat healthy food, maintain healthy body weight and exercise more) to reduce the risk of developing heart diseases.
