Living with Heart Disease (Asia)

Coronary heart disease is the most common type of heart disease in many industrialised countries. It arises from the narrowing of the coronary arteries, resulting in reduced blood flow and thus oxygen supply to the heart muscle.

These 'Speaking From Experience' video clips offer first-hand accounts from six people living in Singapore with Heart Disease. They discuss the impact it has had on their lives and the ways they manage the condition. They were produced in partnership with the Singapore Heart Foundation.
