Researchers believes that this is due to the healthy lifestyle adopted by the educated people and having a higher-paid job helps them to afford better healthcare products and opportunities. It was found out that female graduates had a 28 per cent lifetime risk of cardiovascular diseases in comparison to 51 per cent who did not.

Medical experts believe that people with education are less likely to smoke, abuse alcohol and will exercise more. They are more likely to eat healthier foods and have more frequent health checks than the average population or the one who do not hold a degree. The first study of its kind published by JAMA Internal Medicine said one of the most important socio-economic factors contributing to CVD is educational inequality.
