Scientists reveal best ways to protect yourself from heart disease
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Researchers analysed how certain risk factors, defined by the American Heart Association (AMA), can significantly impact your risk of cardiovascular disease, which kills almost 500 people every day in the UK. The new study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that neglecting habits such as healthy eating, sleeping, physical exercise, and nicotine avoidance could put you ten times more at risk of having a heart attack or a stroke later on."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground reporting across issues including reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, funded by reader donations and kept behind no paywalls to ensure broad access. Donations support sending journalists to report and present both sides of stories. A new study identified eight healthy habits linked to substantially lower lifetime cardiovascular risk. Researchers used American Heart Association risk factors and found neglecting healthy eating, adequate sleep, exercise, and avoiding nicotine can raise the chance of heart attack or stroke dramatically. Early adoption and maintenance of heart-healthy behaviors delivers the greatest long-term benefits.
