Increasing heart attacks in young Indians
India is seen as the diabetes and
coronary heart diseasecapital of the world. According to
current estimates, India will soon have the highest number of heart disease cases in the world.
According to the Indian Heart Association, "50% of all heart attacks in Indians occur under 50
years of age and 25% of all heart attacks in Indians occur under 40 years of
age. Population living in cities are three times more prone to heart attacks
than people living in villages”.
Heart disease is increasing in younger generation with a significant risk in both males and females. More and more number of young Indians are suffering from coronary artery disease, owing to their poor lifestyle, and if this continues the future looks even more dangerous.
Problems faced by young Indians that
increases heart risk are:
• No preference given to Health
• No time to exercise
• Stress
• Junk food
• Obesityand smoking
Such conditions can be avoided by taking proper precautions. In order to avoid it, we need to adopt a healthy life style. Eating healthy food, reducing stress levels and regular work outs will work as the pillars against the risk of heart attack. Walking is one the best way to keep your heart healthy.The risk of heart diseases is more in men when compared to women. Such gender differences and even the genetic impact cannot be avoided.
In case of a heart attack, it has
been seen that the lack of knowledge often causes a delay in handling the
situation, which could aggravate the damage and in some cases prove to be
fatal. So to identify the early symptoms of heart attack is very essential.
