Abstract

cardiovascular diseases complementary therapies mind–body therapies health surveys
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and their risk factors need guideline‐oriented treatment to provide the best benefit for patients.

There is limited information on the association between complementary healthcare utilization and the adherence to recommended conventional health care.
