one’s LIFESTYLE• Behavioral choices – food, physical activity, safety
practices
Chronic Diseases
![Page 7: OBJ: 9.PCH.1.4 Design Strategies for Reducing Risks for Chronic Diseases](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac318b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

HYPERTENSION – high blood pressure Can damage blood vessels and heart over a
long period of time “Silent Killer” – often has early symptoms Most common in people over the age of 35 Prevention – eat healthfully, exercise

ATHEROSCLEROSIS – a disease where there is an accumulation of plaque on artery walls
Typically caused by unhealthy food choices that are high in saturated fats and cholesterol
Leads to Arteriosclerosis – plaque builds up on the walls to the point where it causes the artery to harden
Can also lead to strokes and heart attacks

and parts of the body
