Cardiovascular Disease risk estimate, give medical, dietary and fitness advice
then help them achieve a set healthy heart target through proper follow up and
monitoring.
What is Heart Age and
how can I determine mine?
First, there is chronological age which is your actual
physical age, then your heart age which represents the condition of your heart
e.g. your real age might be 35 years and if you have a healthy heart, your
heart age might be as good as 18years, and if the case is different you might
have a heart age of 65years.
To know your age, a physician will ask some question and run
certain tests that will be used in calculating it.
What is ASCVD Risk
Estimator?
Ans: It is called
Atherosclerotic Cardio Vascular Disease estimator, this will show the risk a
person will have of getting a heart attack over a period of 10 years.

women, accounting for 1 in every 4 deaths. It does not necessarily give or show
signs. Please get your heart health checked!!
