HEART ATTACK! How did it happen?

Rabu, 07 September 2011

I’ll post a great video to educate readers what happened in our heart when a heart attack occurs. We know that heart diseases particularly coronary artery disease is the number 1 cause of death in United States. The number of mortality increases as sedentary lifestyle becomes a model of many people’s way of living in this planet; such as consuming high cholesterol foods, lacking of exercise, excessive smoking, and other factors that influence plaque build-up.

A heart is the center of blood flow in our body. Not different than any muscle in the body, it needs oxygen also. The difference is that the heart muscle beats without a command from our brain command. Imagine it beats more than 100.000 times a day. By the time our age reaches 25, the atherosclerotic plaque begins to build-up.

The video explains how the atherosclerotic plaque is formed in the easiest way to understand.
Before the heart attack happens, please do remember that it’s preventable. Change your way of living. Start doing exercise 15-30 minutes a day, eat healthy foods, and stay away from drugs and alcohol. Love your life, love your heart! J
