Cardiovascular Risks

Posted: Updated:

A new study out of Northwestern University finds more than half the population is at risk for cardiovascular disease at some point in their lives.

The research shows even men and women who have no risk factors for the disease have a 30 percent chance of getting C.V.D. in their lifetime.

Cardiovascular disease includes heart attacks, heart failure and stroke.
