What you need to know about coronary artery disease

Did you know that coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the United States? Coronary artery disease is caused by fatty deposits of plaque that build up in your coronary arteries, the arteries that supply blood to your heart. When this happens, your heart muscle may not get enough blood. Coronary artery disease is serious because it can lead to heart attack. Whether or not you’ve had a heart attack, there are many things you can do to slow the disease and reduce your risk of future heart issues. Here’s a resource full of useful information on coronary artery disease risk, prevention, treatment, and more.
