Salvatore Carbone, PhD: First, I’d like to point out that obesity is a major risk factor for cardiometabolic disease. There are significant data that show that if you have obesity, you have a high risk of developing coronary heart disease, heart failure, type 2 diabetes (T2D) or risk factors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia.

Prevention While certain risk factors associated with heart risks, such as age, sex, race, ethnicity & family history, can’t be changed, you can take plenty of other preventive measures. Obesity or being overweight can increase the risk of heart disease. This is known as a pharmaco-invasive approach. Do not smoke.
