7 Deadly and Often Unnoticed Signs of a Stroke

Strokes are highly prevalent; in fact, someone has a stroke every 40 seconds (1)!  Furthermore, every four minutes someone dies of a stroke and more than 795,000 people per year will have a stroke(1), the statistics are staggering.  The prevalence of stroke, combined with the debilitating and life-altering effects such as paralysis, vision problems, memory loss, speech impairment, and behavioral issues, positions strokes as a leading health concern in the United States.
Risk of stroke does increase with age, but can and does occur at any age.  Young people, those under the age of 45, may be prone to dismissing themselves as stroke candidates due to lack of knowledge and awareness.  Because a swift response to stroke is so vital, it is necessary for people of all ages to recognize the symptoms of stroke.
Failure to recognize that you or a loved one are at risk of stroke, can dramatically reduce the likelihood of survival and increase the likelihood of devastating effects.  A person is never too young to recognize the symptoms of stroke, it can be the difference between life and death.
