Despite the progress in cardiology over the past several decades, cardiovascular disease (CVD) still remains the number one cause of death worldwide. Population aging and cardiovascular risk factors are the major drivers in the incidence of CVD. It is estimated that approximately 80% of cardiovascular deaths reported worldwide are attributed to risk factors responsible for CVD. The American Heart Association (AHA) Life’s Essential 8 have been introduced to prevent CVD. Life’s Essential 8 includes: healthy diet, adequate and good quality sleep, abstain from tobacco use, regular exercise, maintain ideal body weight, manage blood glucose, control cholesterol, and manage blood pressure. In addition to preventing CVD, Life’s essential 8 has shown to slow the aging process and to prevent cancer. With the implementation of healthy habits, and with the new developments in molecular mechanisms related to aging, it is quite possible that healthy aging can be achieved. Further, the application of artificial intelligence in clinical practice will shift the approach from management to prevention and to individualized care. With prevention and individualize care, the cost of health care will decrease, human suffering will diminish, and mortality will decline.
