Cardiovascular Time Bomb

Cardiovascular Time Bomb

By:


Heart disease is the number one cause of death among men in the nation killing approximately 500,000 men every year. There is roughly two times the amount of men killed by heart disease as there are of cancer. Adult males are around 8 times more likely to pass away from heart disease than to do so from an automobile accident. The male gender needs to focus on taking heart health serious beginning in their teens. Studies present the evidence that hardening of the arteries, without question the foremost causes of heart disease, (proven by autopsies) begin in the teens of males. The genetics passed from parents to children contribute to the possibility of children growing to have heart disease however a person"s diet also plays a major role. Smoking as well as high cholesterol make an individual more than twice as likely to suffer from heart attacks.

Heart attacks are another closet killer. While some are extremely painful and without a doubt unmistakably heart attacks, others can go unnoticed until unsuspected heart failure strikes and kills out of the blue. In some reported cases pain was absent altogether, instead there was what the individual perceived to be flu like symptoms. Some 250,000 unsuspecting people die each year of sudden unexpected heart failure. Cardiologists for the most part state that for the most part a majority heart attacks are not the "sledgehammer to the chest" some people think it is. In actuality it"s more uncomfortable with symptoms such as heaviness, burning, pressure like sensation usually in the middle of the chest. Around eighty-five percent of attacks occur because of the artery feeding the heart is clogged from cholesterol. If an individual doesn"t participate in some sort of daily activity keeping them in shape, (television junkie) they are more so in danger of heart attacks from sudden bursts of activity.

If an individual who"s out of shape desires to begin a new regimen of exercise after being in active for long periods of time could actually be fatal due to over exertion, some fifty times grater than someone who exercises five days a week. Individuals who suffer from severe anxiety, stress and those with anger issues also put themselves in danger of suffering heart failure from heart attack. Generally people have the choice of dealing with stress appropriately, however many choose to become over stressed worrying or becoming temperamental thus creating a devastating situation. The possibility for heart failure in individuals who have horrid tempers is great. Most heart attacks are suffered in the early morning hours, also blood clots easier in the morning. From the time someone wakes up to the time they go into drive or overdrive, the transition makes them more susceptible to an attack.
