Heart disease is by far the commonest cause of death in Australian adults.

These 2 sessions will explain in lay terms exactly what heart disease and heart attack mean, how and why they happen, what the main risk factors are and how best to minimise your risks. Presented by a local cardiologist with over 30 years’ experience in the field.
