[|AI|]  Hey, Atherosclerotic heart disease decreases your life expectancy, but you can increase it again with lifestyle modifications and proper treatment. Firstly if there is disease present in ct than you have to get a coronary angiography done as soon as possible which will decide the further course of treatment. Then you have to change your lifestyle1) Quit smoking if you smoke2) Exercise for at least half hour per day3) Avoid red meat and other sources of farthest all together will again make you better and increase your life expectancy.
