More young people suffering heart attacks

‘More young people suffering heart attacks’




DH 11th Sept 06, New Delhi, PTI:

Changing lifestyles and increasing stress levels are taking a toll on the generation next in India, where a staggering 80 lakh of people below the age of 40 are suffering heart attacks every year.

This alarming data has raised concern among doctors, and one of the country’s top cardiologists, Upendera Kaul, has called for greater awareness among Indian youths on the impacts of work stress and lifestyle.

Dr Kaul, the director and head of the cardiology department of the Fortis group of hospitals, on Sunday pointed out that in sharp contrast to the West, as many as 40 per cent of those who get heart attacks in India are below the age of 40.

“In India nowadays more and more young people are becoming prone to heart diseases due to stress at the workplace, competition and urbanisation, which often results in less exercise and more smoking,” he said.

At least seven to eight crore people in India have heart diseases, according to very conservative estimates. Of these, 25 per cent or nearly two crore people actually suffer an attack that can be catastrophic, he said.

Dr Kaul said that an early recognition of symptoms and prompt treatment are extremely important for reducing the mortality rate due to heart attacks.

Most deaths from heart attacks occur within the first hour after the onset of chest pain, he said. The mortality rate can be as high as 20 to 25 per cent if the treatment is inadequate or improper, he warned.

Heart Attacks and drinking warm water....

Heart Attacks and drinking warm water....




This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about heart attacks. This makes sense... the Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals...not cold water...maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain... For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It isnice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. A serious note about heart attacks: You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive... A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Read this...It could save your life!!

ಆಹಾರ ಮತ್ತು ಮನಸ್ಸು

"ಅನ್ನಂ ಆಶ್ರಿತಂ ತ್ರಿಧಾ ಭವತಿ" (ಛಾಂದೋಗ್ಯೋಪನಿಷತ್ತು).
ನಾವು ಸೇವಿಸಿದ ಆಹಾರವು ಮೂರು ಭಾಗಗಳಾಗುತ್ತವೆ.
ಸ್ಥೂಲ ಭಾಗವು ಮಲ-ಮೂತ್ರವಾಗಿ , ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಭಾಗ ರಕ್ತವಾಗಿ , ಅತೀ ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಭಾಗ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನ ಮೇಲೆ ಪರಿಣಾಮ ಬೀರುತ್ತದೆ. ಈ ವಿಷಯವನ್ನು ಶ್ರೀ ಕ್ರಷ್ಣನು ಅರ್ಜುನನನ್ನು ನಿಮಿತ್ತನನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡಿ, ಇಡೀ ಸಾತ್ವಿಕ ಪ್ರಪಂಚಕ್ಕೆ ಶ್ರೀಮದ್ಭಗವದ್ಗೀತೆಯ ಮೂಲಕ ಉಪದೇಶವನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ.
