Although there are many causes of heart attacks, some are even still largely unknown, there are a handful of lifestyle reasons that can contribute to the attack. I present to you my own Ten steps to a heart attack.

10. Smoke. Clearly, smoking is very harmful not only to your lungs, but your heart as well. Your arteries get clogged, making your blood pressure rise. When you smoke, you double your chances of getting heart attack, compared to those who shun smoking.

9. Drink too much, or not enough. Drinking around twelve ounces of beer, five ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of hard liquor is actually good for your heart, but drink more than that, or less, is not effective. When you drink too much, alcohol raises your blood pressure making you at risk of heart attack.

8. Vegetate. If you have a sedentary lifestyle, you will not reduce stress, you will not decrease your cholesterol levels, and you cannot heal your body from issues with blood pressure or excess weight. This will all lead to heart attack.

7. Get angry. Believe it or not, simply getting angry can raise your chance of having a heart attack, making it just as dangerous as health related causes. If you frequently get angry for long periods of time, the resulting rise in blood pressure can lead to a heart attack.

6. Losing control of your cholesterol. Eating saturated fats, especially trans saturated fats, consuming too many calories, and eating foods that are not rich in nutrients can cause your cholesterol to go up, which can make you much more likely to have a heart attack in time.

5. Get stressed out. Stress is a major reason why people suffer from heart attack, because it raises your blood pressures.

4. Lose control of your blood pressure. When you have a high blood pressure, the heart tend to work harder to push blood through, which makes the heart enlarged, and eventually lead to a serious heart attack.

3. Don't take your health serious enough. If you don't take care of your health, you may develop heart attack symptoms. You must give importance to your health everyday to keep your heart healthy.

2. Over exert yourself. Over exertion can cause the stress needed to raise your blood pressure, and by proxy, your risk of having a serious heart attack. If you have other risk factors for heart attacks, you should try not to over tax or over exert your body.

1. Not taking advantage of my unique program. Even though you can beat all of the nine factors mentioned here, you are still at risk of getting a heart attack. But if you use and follow my program, you will definitely win the battle against heart attack.
