Chronic Bladder Infections or Inflammation

Conditions such as bladder infections and long-term bladder inflammation can increase the risk.

Exposure to Chemicals

Prolonged exposure to certain chemicals, especially those used in the dye industry, rubber production, and chemical manufacturing, increases the risk.

Unhealthy Diet

High intake of salt, sugar, and trans fats increases cholesterol and blood pressure.

Lack of Physical Activity

Sedentary lifestyles weaken cardiovascular endurance and lead to obesity.

Smoking

Damages blood vessels and significantly raises the risk of coronary artery disease.

Excessive Alcohol Consumption

Can elevate blood pressure and contribute to arrhythmias.

High Blood Pressure

Puts constant stress on heart muscles and arteries.

Diabetes

Leads to damage of blood vessels and doubles the risk of heart attacks.

High Cholesterol

Causes plaque buildup in arteries, leading to atherosclerosis.

Obesity

Strains the heart, raising the likelihood of heart failure and hypertension.

Stress and Anxiety

Trigger hormonal changes that negatively affect heart rhythm and pressure.

Family History

Genetic predisposition to heart disease increases lifetime risk.

Age and Gender

Men are more prone to early cardiac issues, while risk rises in women post-menopause.

Cardiology

Go for good fats: Choose olive oil, nuts, and avocado instead of trans fats.
Cut down on salt: High sodium levels raise blood pressure.
Load up on fiber: Include fruits, vegetables, and whole grains daily.
Limit sugar and refined carbs: Prevent weight gain and diabetes risk.
