clogged arteries and lifestyle

When it comes to having a healthy body, seeing may be believing.

Experiments suggest that people who see detailed pictures of their clogged arteries may be more likely to stay healthy than people who do not.

FILE - A doctor checks a screen showing a graphical representation of a human heart. A new study suggests that patients who see their clogged arteries are more likely to make and keep a heart-healthy lifestyle.

The latest experiment was done in Sweden.

Researchers there studied just over 3,500 people. These individuals were between 40 and 60 years of age. Each person had at least one risk factor for heart disease, but no signs of the disorder.
