4 Lifestyle Factors Reduce Risk of Sudden Cardiac Death in Women

Medline Plus reports that sudden cardiac death in women can be reduced by as much as 92% when healthy lifestyle choices are made. Cardiovascular problems can be debilitating and cause an individual to become disabled for a period of time. This may qualify you to receive long-term disability benefits while you are not able to work.

4 Lifestyle Factors that can Reduce Sudden Cardiac Death in Women 

• exercising at least 30 minutes a day;
• body mass index (BMI) that is below 25;
• not smoking; and
• eating a healthy diet (fish, whole grains, fruits, legumes, nuts, veggies).

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in the United States, there are approximately 785,000 people who suffer a heart attack annually. Additionally, about 470,000 people are at risk of experiencing a second or additional heart attack. These significant statistics in the risk of death should be a motivation for every woman to get on track towards living a healthy lifestyle.

If you have been denied disability benefits and would like help in appealing your claim, then your next step should be to seek legal counsel. Consulting with an Atlanta long-term disability attorney can improve your chances at a favorable outcome.

Long-term disability benefits may be available to those who have purchased a disability plan from a private insurer or have coverage through an employer. Unfortunately, the insurers don't make it easy for the disabled to get access to the benefits they deserve.
