“Why is it celebrated? Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world. A large part of these deaths could be prevented with a healthy diet, physical exercise, and avoiding harmful substances such as tobacco or alcohol. Annual cardiac check-ups are also recommended if you practice sports or activities of medium intensity.”
