Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels. Blood flow to the heart, brain or body can be reduced because of a blood clot (thrombosis) or build-up of fatty deposits inside an artery, leading to the artery hardening and narrowing (atherosclerosis). The most important behavioral risk factors of heart disease and stroke are unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, tobacco use and harmful use of alcohol.
Incidence: Prevalence of CVDs is 29.4% for adults of age 45 and above (Source: Clinical Epidemiology and Global Health Volume 13)
