    Your heart is a vital organ that pumps oxygenated blood throughout your body. If the heart is not healthy and functioning properly, oxygen cannot be delivered to tissues and organs, which can damage them and lead to death. Several health conditions and lifestyle factors can increase the risk of heart disease. Some major risks include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity, diabetes, and lack of exercise. Symptoms of heart disease depend on the type but may include chest pain, abnormal heartbeats, shortness of breath, and fatigue. Medical treatments aim to lower cholesterol and prevent blood clots through medications like statins, aspirin, and clopidogrel.
