Cardiometabolic disease
Cardiometabolic disease is a major public health concern although it is partly preventable and manageable with appropriate lifestyle changes. The term cardiometabolic disease refers to two groups of diseases with common risk factors: cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack and metabolic disorders such metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.
