    Author: Sidani M, Ziegler C.
    Journal: Prim Care; 2008 Dec; 35(4):589-607. PubMed ID: 18928820.
    Abstract:
    Cardiovascular disease is the most prevalent health challenge to the global health care industry. The goal of prevention is compression of morbidity and enhancement of quality of life through modification of lifestyle and environmental risk factors. Treatment of established cardiovascular disease is expensive and inefficient relative to disease prevention. This article discusses some of the more common nonpharmacologic methods of preventing heart disease.
