Affairs of the Heart

I am of reposting this article for a friend who requested for the topic. I posted this when I was just a new blogger.

According to studies most heart attacks are the end result of years of silent but progressive coronary artery disease. Meaning one could suddenly succumb to fatal heart attack even without exhibiting symptoms of heart disease. Heart attack is sudden interruption or insufficiency of the supply of blood to the heart. This typically happens from occlusion or obstruction of a coronary artery, often characterized by severe chest pain. This is medically termed as myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction occurred when arteries supplying oxygen to the muscles of the heart is blocked. Heart tissue dies when deprived of oxygen.

Stress is one of the contributors of heart attack. However studies had shown attitude and healthy lifestyle could prevent this illness. Genetically, if your parents have heart ailments you are also prone to have this kind of disease. Normally, stress could be managed by exercise to release the tension in our body. Smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages when you are stressed out, do not help manage stress. Why not go for a walk, swim or go to the gym to release the tension in your body?

Good eating habit is one way of having a healthy lifestyle that could prevent this ailment. Refrain from stuffing yourself up with food that could increase your weight. Food loaded with calories must be avoided to prevent from unwanted weight increase. To some who are in their thirties, weight increase is difficult to manage. Limit food intake with much higher calories. Vegetables and fruits are the best. Should you try some reducing pills make sure to consult your doctor. Some reducing pills could result to palpitations and other heart ailments.

During your free time, read books, see a movie, go to the mall and have some window shopping. Window shopping is good, you will never know you had been walking a lot already, yet you enjoy looking around. Just be sure not to get overwhelmed and started to swipe your credit card every time you see an item you liked. The more you will get tense seeing your bill, the next time you received your monthly billing statement.
