Cardiovascular-disease

Part 1

Cardiovascular disease (CVD alone accounts for approximately 20% of all deaths each year worldwide, and the numbers and percentages of deaths are projected to continue to increase at unprecedented rates (Dishman et al., 2004; World Health Organization, 2012)

Take some time to research cardiovascular disease, statistics, causes, risk factors, etc.

Give a specific and detailed overview of what you believe would be the best course of action to keep these numbers and percentages from consistently rising year after year. Really think about and consider a solution to this growing problem. Do not just respond with “individuals need to increase physical activity”, explain and give ideas of how we (as a country) can encourage/motivate people to become more physically active. Think about an actual, overall plan/blueprint to decrease the occurrence of cardiovascular disease.
