Sadly, heart disease is the number one cause of death in our country, causing more than 655,000 fatalities in our country every single year.
This means that every year, one in four deaths in America are caused by heart problems.
Since this range of illnesses is so common, our society has created many myths people believe.
Some may be drugs that ‘miraculously’ cure heart disease, while others may be just lies about what harms us and what doesn’t.
Knowing the difference between fact and fiction is crucial in order to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Many of the choices we think are beneficial for our health may actually cause more harm than good.
If you’re healthy right now, that’s great! However, I think we all know at least one person who’s at risk for heart disease (or already dealing with one).
This is why I think knowing these 7 heart disease myths is so important. We must protect ourselves and our loved ones, so let’s find out the truth!
