Risk factors that contribute to coronary artery disease (CAD):
• high LDL cholesterol
<span>• low </span>HDL cholesterol
• high blood pressure
<span>• family history
</span>• diabetes
• smoking
<span>• being post-menopausal for women and being older than 45 for men
</span>• Obesity/Overweight
• lack of exercise
• stress

Number of patients:
About 78 million<span> U.S. adults have high blood pressure
</span>About 20 million<span> have diabetes.
</span>About 8 million<span> adults have undiagnosed diabetes
</span>About 87 million<span> have pre-diabetes
Heart failure affects well over </span>5 million<span> U.S. adults.
</span>
I can draw from the above data, that almost every person in the US has at least 1 risk factor that contribute to coronary artery disease (CAD).

Yes, I believe government or community agencies continuously help to reduce the risk; they regulate the production and consumption of saturated fat; they have invested in an advertisement, that is reminding the people the symptoms and preventions and how to get rid of it.

Hope I helped you :)
