Improve cardiovascular health in adults — HDS‑01

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and stroke is the fifth leading cause. People with better cardiovascular health are less likely to die of heart disease, stroke, and other diseases. Interventions to lower blood pressure, blood cholesterol, blood sugar, and body mass index can improve overall cardiovascular health. These interventions include strategies to help people eat healthier, get more physical activity, and quit smoking.
