What "heart age" means

Heart age is a simplified way of communicating cardiovascular risk. It translates your risk factors into the equivalent age of someone with average risk. A heart age older than your real age signals room for risk reduction.

What lowers heart age

• Stopping smoking — biggest single change
• Treating high blood pressure
• Improving cholesterol — diet, statins where indicated
• Treating diabetes well
• Regular exercise and weight optimisation
