Health Issues for the Circulatory System

There are a lot of types of problems you can have in your heart. There is Arteriosclerosis (say ar-teer-ee-oh-skluh-row-sus) in an easier way to say it hardening of the arteries. It means your arteries are thick and aren't flexible anymore. Or there is Atherosclerosis (say ah-thuh-row-skluh-row-sus) people that have this have a buildup of cholesterol and fat so that their arteries are more narrow so less blood gets through. Their is also Angina (say an-jy-nuh). When people with angina feel pain in their chest it means that their heart isn't getting enough blood. Then most people know Heart Attack. This is when there is a blood clot or blockage and it cuts blood from getting to that part of the heart. And their is Stroke. It is when the brain doesn't get enough blood because of a clot or a blood vessel burst. As kids most people don't get any of those. And you can prevent other things by not smoking, eating well, exercising, and having a healthy weight. If have healthy habits then you probably won't need to worry about any of these if you treat your body healthy and don't smoke or do drugs. And if you do smoke it is hard to quit but if you manage to quit doing drugs or smoking, your friends, family, lungs, heart, body, and the rest of the people around you will thank you. And if one of your friends try to give you a supposedly harmless little cigarette or drug just walk away and again you will be more happy.
