5 Major Factors That Increase Your Risk Of A Heart Attack

Heart diseases are also termed as Cardiac diseases. It is a broad term used for various conditions that affect the heart. The major cause of heart disease is a contraction of the lumen of arteries that supply blood to the heart and is commonly known as coronary artery disease (CAD).

No doubt there are certain risk factors for heart disease that you can’t control, such as your age, a family history of heart disease, or your gender. Nevertheless, there are many factors that increase your risk of getting a heart attack or developing coronary artery disease can be controlled if you decide to make a few simple lifestyle changes.

Here are 5 major risk factors, which lead to various heart problems…

  • Family History of Heart Disease

According to the American Heart Association, obtaining family history is very important for establishing your risk of heart disease and heart related issues, such as heart attack and stroke.

Apart from heightening your personal risk, a family history of heart disease or stroke also plays a key role into prevention. If you have a history of heart disease in your family, like in your parents or grandparents, don’t forget to tell this to your doctor.

  • Sedentary or Inactive Lifestyle

If you are among people who sit at a desk all day at work and do little activity in the evening, then be ready to face an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases as well as an increased waistline. Health experts believe that excess weight directly results in high cholesterol and triglycerides, along with greater risk of a blood clot stopping flow to your heart. Those who live sedimentary lifestyles eventually increase their chances of weight gain. This “central obesity” slowly weakens the heart’s ability to pump blood, causing a greater risk of heart failure.

  • Diabetes

According to The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), having diabetes almost doubles the risk of getting a heart disease or stroke. Both men as well as women who are suffering with diabetes are prone to get a heart disease or have strokes at much earlier ages as compare to those with no history of diabetes.Moreover, studies shown that middle-aged males and females with type 2 diabetes are as subject to suffer a heart attack similar to patients with no history of diabetes but have already had a previous heart attack. Moreover, heart attacks are also more severe in diabetic patients because of the high blood glucose and increased fatty deposits coating blood vessel walls.

  • Smoking

Cigarettes can do a lot of damage to your heart. According to the National Heart, Blood, and Lung Institute(NHBLI), chemicals present in tobacco can cause damage to almost ever internal organ in the human body, mainly the heart, blood cells, and blood vessels. As far as damage to the heart, smoking can increase your chances of developing atherosclerosis, a disease that forces plaque to develop in the arteries, which eventually results in hardening and narrowing arteries to such a level that oxygen-rich blood supply only remain limited to organs.

  • High Blood Cholesterol

According to a research jointly done by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and American Heart and Stroke Foundation (AHSF), high levels of blood cholesterol are most responsible factor for the development of coronary heart disease, such as plaque, in which a combination of cholesterol, calcium, and fat accumulates on the inner walls of the coronary arteries restricting blood flow. Unfortunately, people with increased high blood cholesterol, or too much cholesterol in their blood, generally do not show any indication before it’s too late.
