CardiovascularCardiovascular disease or “heart disease” refers to several types of heart conditions.1 The most common type is coronary artery disease, which can cause heart attack. Other kinds of heart disease may involve the valves in the heart, or the heart may not pump well and cause heart failure.1 Having high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or diabetes also can increase the risk for heart disease.1
