Does having a healthy lifestyle mean that I won't get heart disease?

Not necessarily. Many people have genetic (inherited) factors that increase their risk of heart disease despite a healthy lifestyle. One clue to this is your family history: if one of your parents or another close relative has early heart disease, you could also be at risk. Only more detailed tests can fully determine your risk and help you know how to decrease that risk.
