Currently, it is the number one cause of premature death and disability in the US. Almost 40% of all deaths in the US are caused from heart disease related illnesses. The increase of high fat diets, high cholesterol, stress, physical inactivity, and many other factors all contribute to the chronic illness of heart disease.
