I know that im only 25 as of 2017, but believe me when I say that I believe that taking care of your health is very important. Both my parents being doctors at home, I really have them to thank for guiding me to take care of myself the right way. With high cholesterol, high blood pressure and high blood sugar is a serious issue which Malaysians take very lightly till it's too late, I would like to emphasize to you on a few facts and ways to prevent yourself from suffering from the 3 Highs.

"Nearly 1 in every 2 Malaysian adults has high blood cholesterol, 1 in every 3 has high blood pressure, 1 in every 6 has type 2 diabetes and 1 in four heart attack patients are below 50 years old" - Dr. Chee Kok Han.

Cardiovascular diseases including heart attacks and strokes are the biggest contributor to non-communicable diseases and these diseases usually depends on your dietary and lifestyle habits to achieve better heart health.
