Heart disease is a
major concern in South Africa, as heart attacks and strokes take a large amount of lives on a daily basis. High blood pressure, high blood cholesterol and diabetes are the most common factors that add to the risk of heart disease. The Heart and Stroke Foundation emphasises the necessity of checking your blood pressure and cholesterol levels regularly, as there is no visible signs when these levels are raised.
