Cardiovascular disease (CVD) affects the heart and blood vessels and includes conditions like heart attacks and strokes. It is the leading cause of death worldwide, responsible for more than 20 million lives every year. Many of which are preventable through healthy lifestyle choices and timely treatment. Your heart is powerful but vulnerable, and risk factors such as high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, and poor diet can increase the chance of serious illness. Understanding CVD and being prepared with regular check-ups, healthy habits, and access to life-saving equipment like defibrillators (AEDs) can make all the difference.

Understanding CVD

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) doesn’t just affect one part of the body; it impacts the entire circulatory system, including the heart, arteries, and veins. It develops over time, often silently, until a serious event like a heart attack or stroke occurs.

That’s why awareness is so important. Knowing the warning signs such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or irregular heartbeat and understanding your risk factors can help you act early.
