The big three stroke risk factors

Another way to look at stroke risk factors and prevention takes a look at the three biggest risk factors for a stroke:

As we've done in recent months by examining the risk factors and treatments associated with the most common types of cancer and diabetes, I propose to more closely examine the three biggest risk factors that can cause a stroke, discuss what treatment options exist, if any, to help mitigate that risk, and as always, discuss what investment potential these top treatments may have for your portfolio.

According to the CDC, there are three big factors that can lead to stroke:

Medical conditions.
Behavioral factors.
Hereditary factors.

And again - it's important to pay attention and take control where you can. The life you save might be your own.
