00:00Young Indians think that heart attack is an old people's problem.
00:04But nowadays, heart attacks can kill up to 17-year-old children.
00:12In India, 50% of heart attacks occur in people below the age of 50.
00:19And more than 900 people die every day from heart attacks
00:23who are below the age of 30.
00:31In Nazariya Ki Nagariya, today we will talk about
00:33the impact of heart attacks on young Indians' deaths.
00:38First, let's understand the difference between a heart attack and a cardiac arrest.
00:43In a cardiac arrest, your heart is completely arrested.
00:47It stops beating.
00:50This is more dangerous than a heart attack
00:53because it malfunctions the electrical system of the heart
00:57which stops the heart from beating.
01:00Because of this, the patient becomes unconscious and does not get the pulse.
01:04A cardiac arrest is the cause of death of people like Michael Jackson, KK and Raju Srivastav.
01:10A heart attack occurs when an artery is blocked
01:14and blood does not reach the heart.
01:16And that's why oxygen can't reach the heart.
01:19Because of this, the heart muscle starts dying.
01:23This causes chest pains and difficulty in breathing.
01:27The name of a heart attack is because it suddenly attacks your heart function.
01:32It is intense and if you don't get medical help immediately, it can be fatal.
01:38Although this attack happens suddenly, it starts long before it starts.
01:44That's why it is also called a silent killer.
01:47It is important that you know what the causes of this are
01:51and how to stop them.
01:54The first factor is genetics.
01:56Heart disease is the biggest cause of death in India.
01:59And 60% of the world's heart disease cases come from India.
02:05Moreover, we get heart attacks 10 years before compared to the rest of the world.
02:11This risk is due to the haplotype 2 gene variant
02:14which is found in 35-40% of the Indian population.
02:19And if someone in your family has had a heart disease 50 years ago,
02:23then your risk is also very high.
02:26That's why when you go to a doctor,
02:28their first question is
02:30does anyone in your family have a premature heart disease problem?
02:34The second contributing factor is stress.
02:37Because of hustle culture and chronic stress, cortisol hormone is released in the body
02:42which increases the heart rate and blood pressure.
02:46This extra strain puts more stress on the heart.
02:49The biggest example of this is actor Shri Asthal Pade.
02:53Shri Asthal Pade got a heart attack
02:55when he neither drank nor smoked.
02:58And his diet was also good.
03:00He got this heart attack due to stress.
03:03This tells us how dangerous stress is for heart disease.
03:09On top of that, today's modern diet
03:11which is full of processed foods, salt, sugar and unhealthy fats
03:16is a major reason for heart disease.
03:19All these things increase blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
03:24This builds up plaque in the arteries
03:27which increases the risk of heart disease.
03:30Apart from this, people adopt unhealthy habits like smoking and drinking.
03:35And if smoking is not enough,
03:37environmental factors like air pollution also increase the risk of heart attack.
03:42High pollution levels are not only toxic to the lungs but also to the heart.
03:48Effects of COVID-19
03:49Indian Council of Medical Research found that
03:52young Indians are getting more heart attacks these days.
03:55Especially those who are already infected with COVID-19.
03:59Last year, during Garba Nights in Gujarat,
04:0210 people died in just 24 hours.
04:06Actually, due to the virus,
04:08the lungs build up inflammation and fluid
04:11which makes it difficult for oxygen to reach the bloodstream.
04:16That means, if you have recovered from COVID-19,
04:19then your heart will have to work harder to pump blood.
04:24That's why you should take better care of your heart.
04:27And although regular exercise is important for the heart,
04:31over-exertion can be harmful.
04:35Especially if there is any undetected underlying heart disease.
04:39You should be health conscious, not body conscious.
04:43Symptoms of a heart attack can be subtle and varied.
04:47For example, pain in the upper abdomen, jaw, neck, arms or shoulders.
04:53Search for it and be aware.
04:56You should definitely get CPR training when in trouble.
05:00That's why we are putting some links of this training in the description for you.
05:05Awareness and proactive management help in preventing heart disease.
05:10Forget the rat race and take care of your health.
05:14It is true that increasing heart attacks in young people is a serious issue.
05:20But this risk can be reduced with a little awareness and lifestyle changes.
