Till now people are not convinced that at 40, a fit actor like Siddharth will die suddenly. The cause of his death was a heart attack. In the night, Siddharth also complained of chest pain, which he ignored and went to sleep. If only this matter was taken care of, then perhaps Siddhartha would have been among us all today. Not only Siddharth Shukla, nowadays the problems of heart attack and heart diseases are also increasing rapidly among the youth. According to experts, the risk of heart diseases is also increasing due to the increasing haphazard lifestyle, unhealthy diet among the youth.
However, Siddharth was seen to be very fit and healthy, The amazing body was maintained. There are few chances of heart failure in fit and healthy people, yet Siddhartha left this world because of a sudden heart attack. But the departure of Siddharth Shukla is like a warning. After all, why should the heart be punished for our mistakes? Has the time come when we have to change the way we live? After all, why heart failure at a young age, and why are the figures of heart attack in youth increasing?
53 percent increase
The National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) figures show that the death toll from heart attacks in India has increased since 2014. If the number of deaths due to this was 18309 in the year 2014, it increased to 28,005 in the year 2019. There was a 53 percent increase in heart attack-related diseases and deaths in five years Heart diseases are now increasing in every age group.
If you’re in your 20s, 30s, or 40s, you may believe that you have plenty of time to think about your heart health and your feelings about having a heart attack. But now it is not right to think so, because even before Siddharth, many young people have died due to heart attack.
A Research shows that heart attack – often associated with older men, but now its cases are increasing rapidly in young people, especially women. Researchers studied more than 28,000 people who were hospitalized from 1995 to 2014 and found that among those aged 34 to 54, the rate of heart attack increased from 27 percent to 32 percent.
A research presented at the American College of Cardiology conference in the year 2019 highlighted the increasing cases of heart attack among youth. In this study, researchers said that in people under 40 years of age, the incidence of heart attack has increased by two percent in the last 10 years. According to health experts, men have a higher risk of a heart attack after the age of 65, while women are at a higher risk of a heart attack after the age of 72. Yes, that is quite worrying.
Sudden cardiac arrest caused the death of Siddharth
When a person dies immediately after a heart attack, it is called sudden cardiac arrest. If we do not take the person to the hospital within an hour, then death can occur. Death due to a heart attack is not a new thing, but sometimes this attack is so dangerous that a person loses his life in a second. Do you know why a heart attack happens?
Where and how does the heart work in our body?
Heart is a very important part of our body, it is such a muscle, which works like a pump. The size of the heart is equal to our fist, it is on the left side of the chest and between the two lungs. It keeps on pumping continuously; it keeps on shrinking and expanding from moment to moment. Because of the action of contracting and expanding, there is a continuous flow of blood in the blood vessels of our body. The heart itself is a muscle, it also needs blood to do its job. Blood arteries that carry blood to the heart are also called coronary arteries. These arteries are very important for the heart, as long as they keep sending blood to the heart according to the need, it keeps getting oxygen, and it keeps doing its work properly.
But, when blood and oxygen do not reach the heart properly, then the heart cannot do its work properly and in such a situation usually, people have unbearable pain in the chest, which is a sign of heart attack.
Heart attack symptoms
Some significant symptoms appear when a heart attack occurs, such as-
– chest discomfort or pain
– Chest tightness or sneezing
– pain in the arm, neck, jaw, or back
-cold sweat
-Getting nausea
-Heartburn or abdominal pain
– shortness of breath
-Tiredness
Heart attack symptoms are also not the same in all people. Some people may have mild chest pain while some may have severe pain. It may also happen that some people do not already have any symptoms of it. Health experts say, the more symptoms you have, the chance of a heart attack will be more.
Health experts say that the cases of death because of heart attack or other heart diseases under 40 were very low earlier, although in recent years there has been an increase in it. In general, there may be a risk of a heart attack during physical activities such as playing or exercising. It is more likely to occur in men than women. According to health experts, adults who already have diseases like coronary artery disease, those people need to be very careful.
According to the American Heart Association, many destructive lifestyle habits can make you a heart patient at a young age, due to which the risk of heart attack or cardiac arrest increases. Smoking is one of the biggest risk factors for heart disease and heart attack among young people. Smokers are up to eight times more likely to have a heart attack than other people. Apart from this, the rapidly increasing cases of stress and depression among youth are also seen as an important factor in this. Problems with high blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, and obesity can also increase the risk of heart attack at an early age.
In today’s changing era, we saw the problem of heart attack at any age, but for any person above 35 years of age or who has high cholesterol, BP, diabetes, obesity, or heart-related problem, then it should be regular. But a heart test must be done. If there is any kind of problem in the arteries of the heart, then definitely show it to the doctor. Do not ignore chest pain. Over-workout, consumption of body-building drugs, smoking, unhealthy lifestyle, diabetes, etc can sometimes cause heart disease.
According to a survey, IT professionals, those working in call centers, etc., night shifters are also more likely to get heart disease. For those who work in multi-national companies, their office hours are similar to those of foreign countries. In such a situation, neither the time of sleeping is right nor the time to wake up. It doesn’t make you sleepy. When people sleep, these people work. Such young professionals are not able to take sunlight properly. This also leads to a deficiency of Vitamin D in the body. Sleeping less, exercising less, doing excessive workouts also give rise to heart disease. So be aware, be safe, and be happy… with no tension.
