How do i reduce the risk of heart burns and heart attacks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heart attack: Early heart attack does 'run in families' this is one of the risk factors. We use this as an indicator that the patient should be aggressive in controlling all the risk factors like lipids, smoking, bp, diabetes, gout, exercise that they can. Most people can't change their parents. Lots of us have that same risk(me too), .
