For many people it is a matter of genetics. My neighbors both died in their mid 60’s after suffering for years from heart problems. Their parents died in their 50’s.
All four of my Grandparents died of heart disease.
I am totally free of heart disease at 46. I have a Cardiologist I see 4 times a year; I have a full lipid scan done 2 times per year.
Why? Diet Exercise and moderation.
Resting Heart rate = 37. BP 85/50
Heredity is no excuse.
