What's Your Risk for Heart Disease? Cardiovascular disease remains America’s number one cause of death, according to the American Heart Association. This startling statistic can be reversed with early detection and preventativemeasures. Determine if you are at risk of developing heart disease by taking this simple test:

Are you a smoker or do you live or work with someone who smokes daily? Are you a man over the age of 45 or a woman over the age of 55? Do you or someone in your family have a history of heart disease? Are you overweight? Is your total cholesterol higher than 240mg/dL or are you unsure of your cholesterol count? Is your blood pressure higher than 140/90 or are you unsure of your blood pressure? Do you exercise less than three times a week for 30 minutes? Do you have diabetes? If you answered YES to two or more of these questions then you may be at risk for heart disease. Taking appropriate measures now can reduce your risk of serious health issues. We urge you to visit your primary care physician or call 1-888-DMC-2500 for a referral.  It could save your life.
