The Miller Family Heart, Vascular & Thoracic Institute has created a series of online presentations to provide you with information about heart, vascular and thoracic conditions and treatments. These videos highlight questions and answers about heart and vascular disease prevention and lifestyle management by our health care professionals.
There are several risk factors for heart disease; some are controllable, others are not. The more risk factors you have, the greater the likelihood that you will have heart disease. By making changes in your lifestyle, you can actually reduce your risk of developing heart disease.
