Science is working on it as we speak. My father suffered a major heart attack 25 years ago and has had heart disease since. With today's technology doctors have been keeping him alive. He is now 73 yrs. old and still kicking along. As everyday goes by, doctors are learning more and I think we'll see tremendous improvments in our lifetime with heart disease.

some people are just born with a heart problem like myself.
3 :
eventually science will be able to controll heart disease to a very highlevel but i don't believe that it will ever be completely avoidable because the body is so comlex and reacts with time

if ur dad has high cholesterol, see if hes taking 'lipitor' as one of his medication.. because this medicine helps reduce cholesterol.. also make ure dad eat food which are low in saturated-fat .. some of the examples of low saturated-fat foods are as follows : fat free or 1% dairy products lean meats fish and shellfish skinless poultry whole grain foods fruits vegetables Look for soft margarines (liquid or tub varieties) that are low in saturated fat and contain little or no trans fat (another type of dietary fat that can raise your cholesterol level). hope that helps.....
2 :
see a nutritionist--they are free to see at health departments. Read the labels on food. fruit/vegetables are a good food choice as well as non fried foods.
3 :
I would suggest you visit the american heart association web site for information on a healthy diet, but I also would remind you that only your dad can choose to eat a healthy diet and lead a healthy lifestyle

Please remember the coronaries/ blood vessels of heart are also affected and a fatal out come can take place.
