ACS Q&A with Dr. Gooszen – When Should You Start Paying Attention to Heart Health?

We should always pay attention to our heart health. Traditionally, we consider men ages 45 and older and women ages 55 and older to have an increased risk for heart disease based on age alone.

While heart health is important at every stage of life, these age ranges are considered additional risk factors. This is when it’s especially important to monitor your cardiovascular health.
