We live in an age in which the average American is more concerned with maintaining a healthy lifestyle than was the case just a generation ago. Healthy food alternatives are everywhere. Exercise and fitness programs are more popular than ever. And the phrase heart healthy is something we have all become used to hearing.Cardiac DoctorSo it may surprise you to know that heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States with nearly 500,000 people succumbing to this killer each year. And what’s even more astounding than this sobering figure is that many of these people had no prior indication that they were in danger until they died suddenly from heart failure.

Yet a simple visit with a cardiac doctor for a screening examination is often all that stands between a potential sudden cardiac death candidate, and a normal life span. These medical professionals are highly trained in examining, even individuals who show no outward signs of heart disease, to determine if they too are at risk.

The highest at risk indicators for sudden cardiac death are:

  • males over 40
  • smokers
  • high blood pressure
  • diabetics
  • history of fainting
If any of these risk factors pertain to you, seeing a cardiac doctor for a simple evaluation may be one of the wisest decisions you’ve ever made. There are a number of simple and inexpensive heart tests he can perform to help you get an accurate sense of whether or not a serious condition exists.Peace of mind is a wonderful thing to have about anything in life – but especially about our health. And few things about our health are more serious and important than our heart health. Whether you think you have a problem or not, if you are over 40, consulting with a cardiac doctor is one sure way to give yourself – and your loved ones –  the peace of mind that comes with knowing your heart’s true condition.
