        Young at Heart?<\/strong><\/p>\n

        New research shows that decades of hard-won progress in reducing the risk of heart disease in America appears to be losing pace. Recent death rates from heart disease remain almost unchanged in men and women under 55 years old.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        This trend comes at a time when even young people are increasingly likely to be obese, suffer from diabetes and have high blood pressure. Each of these increases heart attack risk.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Data from 1980 to 2002 showed that the death rate from heart disease had fallen.<\/p>\n

        In the whole population there was a yearly reduction of 2.9 percent during the 1980s, 2.6 percent during the 1990s and 4.4 percent from 2000 to 2002.<\/p>\n

        However the numbers told a strikingly different story for people aged 35 to 54. The yearly death rate from heart disease fell by 6.2 percent in the 1980s, by only 2.3 percent in the 1990s and showed no reduction at all between 2000 and 2002.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        The message is that heart disease has not gone away, and could become an even greater problem if people fail to pay attention to known warning signs. Dr F S Ford, a medical officer for the American government said, \u201cYoung adults should take stock of their lifestyles. Don\u2019t smoke and take at least 30 minutes of exercise per day. If you need to lose weight, you must burn more energy than you take in. Good habits should start early. Changes that lead to heart disease, for example hardening of the arteries, occur at an early age. Therefore it is especially important that children and young people develop appropriate habits that minimise their risk of heart disease later in life.\u201d<\/p>\n

        (a)\u00a0 From the passage<\/u>, identify three <\/strong>factors which contribute to the risk of heart disease. (1)<\/p>\n

        (b)\u00a0 Copy and complete the table below to show the changes in death rates for the 35-54 age group and the whole population. (2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
