Smoking puts nicotine in your arteries and keeps building up and gets in the bloodstream so you don't have nice clean blood to circulate and the nicotine also reduces the oxygen your heart needs. Controlling waist size- extra pounds puts extra work on the heart and BP. BP can rise because of extra weight which makes the heart work harder. Stress puts extra work on the heart as well. Controlling stress keeps the heart relaxed and not always revved up because of the BP stress raises. Exercising keeps the heart pumping like it should, keeps stress under control and keeps your weight down so the heart doesn't have to work harder causing a heart attack
