According to statistics, one person dies from cardiovascular diseases every 34 seconds on earth..

Risk factor Cardiovascular disease accounts for 56% of deaths in Russia. Every year, more than 1 million Russians die from them, while about 10 million suffer from coronary heart disease.. Ischemic heart disease (CHD) is a chronic disease caused by insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle, or, in other words, its ischemia.. Myocardial infarction is the most severe and common form of acute coronary artery disease..

Let's try to figure out what factors can contribute to the development of coronary heart disease.

Age. It is believed that the incidence of heart disease increases in direct proportion to the number of years lived.. But, alas, in recent years, the disease is increasingly common in young, full of strength and life plans of people Belonging to the male sex. Heart disease in women appears several years later than in men.. However, this difference is getting smaller and smaller.. The reason is stress.

stress. People who are characterized by constant lack of time, tension, low self-esteem are 7 times more susceptible to heart disease.

Excess weight. Just 10% excess weight increases the likelihood of heart disease, including coronary disease by 20%.

Improper nutrition. Not enough vegetables and fruits on your table increases the risk of heart problems by a third.

Changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure. Adverse weather events - stress for the cardiovascular system, especially if a person already has problems in this area.

First of all, you need to make sure that your diet has enough vitamins and minerals..

It would seem that in order to help your heart and blood vessels, you just have to balance your diet and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits..

However, this is not quite true. The fact is that due to additional processing and refining, many foods lose useful substances.. And various diseases, such as gastritis or stomach ulcers, lead to the fact that vitamins are simply not absorbed by the body..

That is why, in order to maintain good health, one cannot do without vitamin complexes and drug therapy that prevents the development of the disease..
