Heart attacks just come out of nowhere, right? They happen to anybody, without warning, right?
Wrong. In the vast majority of cases, they are caused by years of bad habits.
MyHealthInsight.com reports on a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association finding that 90% of the people who suffer heart attacks have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes, and/or smoke cigarettes.
In other words, people who are overweight because they eat loads of sugar and fat and processed foods, people who don’t exercise regularly, people who smoke—they are the ones, 9 times out of 10, who have heart attacks.
It’s not just bad luck.
It’s not just luck, either, that some students do well in school and others do poorly. Good habits make good students.
