Most people in Germany die from cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks. High blood pressure as a widespread disease triggers some potentially fatal cardiovascular diseases.
A healthy lifestyle, regular physical activity and a balanced diet play a key role in prevention. Stress reduction is also a real heart protector. Check-ups with a doctor are also extremely important in order to detect existing diseases at an early stage. Find out from your health insurance company which early detection examinations are covered. This includes, for example, a general health check-up.
