For children, the American Heart Association defines ideal cardiovascular health in terms of four health behaviors: (1) never smoked; (2) body mass index below the 85th percentile; (3) at least 60 minutes per day of moderate or vigorous physical activity; and (4) a healthy diet score.
The Nations Risk Factors and CDCs Response. Leading risk factors for heart disease and stroke are high blood pressure, high low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, diabetes, smoking and secondhand smoke exposure, obesity, unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity.
These findings are remarkable in demonstrating that children with only mildly elevated body mass index, blood pressure or lipids, and youth who start smoking, may be at higher risk for adult cardiovascular disease, Woo says.
Physical inactivity is a major risk factor for heart disease. People who do not exercise have an increased risk of heart disease. Physical inactivity also increases the risk of developing other heart disease risk factors such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes.
