Heart Health at Any Age: Prevention Starts Now

At EASTSIDE FAMILY HEALTH CENTER in Kirkland, WA, we take heart health seriously at every stage of life. Led by Dr. Frank Marinkovich, M.D., our integrative approach focuses on early detection, lifestyle-based prevention, and targeted therapies to keep your cardiovascular system strong—no matter your age.
Why Prevention Matters
-
Heart disease remains the #1 cause of death in both men and women
-
Many heart conditions develop silently, without obvious symptoms
-
Risk factors like high blood pressure, inflammation, and insulin resistance often begin years before a diagnosis
Why it matters: Prevention isn’t just about age—it’s about staying ahead of risk.
Heart-Smart Habits for Every Decade
-
In Your 20s–30s: Build a strong foundation with regular exercise, a clean diet, and blood pressure checks
-
In Your 40s–50s: Monitor cholesterol, blood sugar, and body composition. Manage stress and prioritize sleep
-
In Your 60s and Beyond: Get annual heart screenings, reduce inflammation, and maintain mobility and circulation
Why it matters: Each decade presents new opportunities to protect your heart and prevent complications.
