Strokes can happen to anyone, at any age. Globally about one in four adults over the age of 25 will have a stroke in their lifetime. Most adults in the U.S. don’t know the F.A.S.T. warning signs of a stroke.
Stroke is largely treatable if you call 911 as soon as you recognize the symptoms. If you think you are at risk , consult your doctor. Screening is a simple as an ultrasound or a quick check of your neck during your annual physical.

Smoking increases the risk of stroke by narrowing the arteries in the brain and the carotid arteries in the neck that lead to the brain. In addition, the vessels to the brain can become blocked by a clog or blood clot, which can lead to collapse, stroke and paralysis. If the blood vessels are completely blocked to part of the brain, that part will die. Patients may lose the ability to speak, walk or move normally, or, depending on the part of the brain affected, the stroke may be fatal. It's never too late to quit smoking.
