THE INCREASE IN CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES AMONG YOUTH: CAUSES, RISK FACTORS AND WAYS OF PREVENTION

Abstract

In recent decades, the widespread prevalence of cardiovascular diseases not only among the elderly, but also among young people has become one of the global health problems. This situation is expressed by the concept of the “ageing” of heart disease. This scientific article scientifically analyzes the main factors that contribute to the early development of cardiovascular diseases among young people - unhealthy diet, sedentary lifestyle, psycho-emotional stress, harmful habits, hereditary and environmental factors. It also highlights the importance of forming a healthy lifestyle, preventive medical examinations and measures aimed at strengthening health in the prevention of heart disease. The results of the study justify the need for a comprehensive approach to protecting the health of young people.
