With the onset of winter, cases of heart-related problems are increasing rapidly among the youth. According to doctors, the shrinking of nerves in cold weather and increasing pressure on the heart are becoming a major cause of these problems. Cases of heart attack and other heart-related problems in young people in the age group of 20 to 35 years are worrisome. According to the Heart Disease Institute, about 200 patients are coming daily who have never had any heart-related problems before.
In winter, cold has a direct effect on the nerves of the body. The veins of the hands and feet shrink, which obstructs the flow of blood to the heart and puts extra pressure on the heart. Cardiologists say that there is a high chance of increasing blood pressure in cold, which can increase the risk of heart attack. Apart from this, irregular routine, junk food, smoking, alcohol consumption and lack of exercise are also becoming a major cause of heart-related problems in the youth.
Wear warm clothes: Wear warm clothes that cover the body completely so that the effect on the nerves from cold is reduced.
Eat a balanced diet: Include ghee, almonds, walnuts and omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Avoid fried and junk food.
Exercise: Do 30 minutes of light exercise daily. It helps in increasing the functioning capacity of the heart and controlling blood pressure.
Avoid intoxication: Smoking and alcohol consumption have a bad effect on heart health.
Stay away from stress: Stress increases the risk of heart attack, so make yoga and meditation a part of your daily routine.
Monitor blood pressure: Get regular blood pressure and cholesterol checks in winter.
