Abstract: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a leading cause of mortality globally. While genetic factors play a role, lifestyle modifications have been shown to significantly reduce CVD risk. This review examines the impact of various lifestyle factors, including diet, physical activity, smoking cessation, alcohol consumption, and stress management, on cardiovascular health. Evidence suggests that adopting a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can lower blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and inflammation. Regular physical activity has been linked to improved cardiovascular function, weight management, and reduced risk of diabetes. Smoking cessation is crucial for preventing and reversing damage to blood vessels. Moderate alcohol consumption may offer some benefits, but excessive drinking increases CVD risk. Effective stress management techniques can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Overall, this review highlights the importance of lifestyle modifications in preventing and managing cardiovascular disease.
