Stroke can happen to anyone, at any age. While stroke risk increases after age 50, we're seeing it become more common among younger adults too. Conditions like heart disease, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes are likely contributors — which is why engaging in a healthy lifestyle matters at every stage of life. If you suspect someone is having a stroke, reach for the phone and call 911 right away.
