We must promote healthy eating and exercise along with implement more preventative measures/plans to reduce both obesity and CVD. ]]> 2021-10-01 23:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lilynp/vdkc9r4hw6mp77f1/wish/1785256973 lilynp https://padlet.com/lilynp/vdkc9r4hw6mp77f1/wish/1785386832 Obesity and cardiovascular disease are both global health issues that we must take into consideration especially since cardiovascular disease is the number 1 cause of death in many countries.
