Heart health and stroke prevention

Prevention focuses on lowering cardiovascular risk over time. Screening can help identify risk factors, but no test or prevention program guarantees that a heart attack or stroke will not occur.

What should I discuss with my clinician?

Review your blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes status, smoking, family history and current medicines. Ask which tests are appropriate and how often to repeat them. High blood pressure may have no symptoms, so regular checks matter.

Which habits support heart health?

Avoid smoking, stay physically active, choose a heart-healthy eating pattern and work with your care team on weight and existing conditions. Take prescribed medicines as directed; do not stop them without discussing it with your clinician.

Ask a Mexico clinic directly about its current evaluation options, clinicians and fees. BNTRL’s planned U.S. clinical services are not yet open.
