Heart attack

Why do they give heart attacks?

A heart attack is caused by an obstruction in the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart muscle (myocardium).

A partial obstruction causes chest pain called angina pectoris.

To prevent obstructions, doctors recommend avoiding animal fats, salt, tobacco and becoming overweight. Exercise also improves cardiac functions as it increases the number of red blood cells, allowing more oxygen to be captured and transported.
