Diabetes damages the nerves, and those diagnosed with it should be checked out as soon as possible to avoid severe complications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smoking is the second factor that is surprisingly low on the list. Its prevalence may have declined because most people with heart health problems either do not smoke, have already quit, or prefer to keep this information private.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This finding correlates with the decline in the popularity of smoking in the United States. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/tobacco\/data_statistics\/fact_sheets\/adult_data\/cig_smoking\/index.htm\" class=\"broken_link\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The CDC reports<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that about 20.9% of American adults smoked in 2005, compared to 12.5% in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smoking has a terrible effect on your heart health.
