By Melissa HaugKansas State CollegianHeart disease is not something you catch because you forgot to wash your hands or because you shared a beverage with a thirsty friend. Heart disease, instead, is brought on by several health conditions that relate to the heart and blood vessels, onset by daily events.Although you might feel immune to this condition and its devastating effects for the moment, it's likely you're already at risk for a heart attack or stroke in the future. The good news is modifiable risk factors outnumber those you can't change. Prevention starts with your decisions today.As the leading cause of death in America, heart disease is no laughing matter. According to the Centers for Disease Control, deaths from heart disease in 2004 outranked the second-leading cause of death, cancer, by a whopping 103,822 deaths.With so many annual deaths from this disease, why do we continue to turn the other cheek? How do we not take it upon ourselves to protect our health for now and the future?Keep in mind high-risk factors do not guarantee you a heart attack or stroke, but the more risk factors you choose not to control, the greater your statistical chances for heart disease and hardships later in life.Uncontrollable High-Risk FactorsAccording to the American Heart Association, if your father or brother experienced heart disease before age 55, or if your mother or sister experienced heart disease before age 65, you are at a higher risk to contract the disease. According to American Dietetics Association, blacks with high blood pressure, Mexican Americans, Native Americans, Native Hawaiians, and some Asian Americans have shown greater prevalence for heart disease.Controllable Risk FactorsSmoking cigarettes, cigars and pipes and secondhand smoke causes high blood pressure or hypertension, according to the American Heart Association. This forces the heart to work harder, causing enlargement of the heart muscle, which eventually weakens it.
