In which position do you sleep?   If you sleep on your stomach or on your left side, you are putting pressure on your heart with the extra body weight, while the heart has to continue pumping blood as usual.  This additional burden wears the heart out more quickly.  Think about it - you spend more than one third of your life sleeping!  To reduce the strain on your heart, sleep on your right side, or on your back.  This simple technique will add years to your life.
