Coronary Heart Disease is Very Deadly

post by go to a healthy lifestyle on 3/01/2011


In developing countries like America, Britain, Singapore, and Indonesia for example, coronary heart disease is one of pengancam human soul that is still very rampant in addition to other epidemics such as avian influenza or a natural disaster. 

It has been a lot of people who died of this disease, and operating costs to cure patients of coronary heart disease is also very expensive. Although the disease generally attacks people who are relatively old enough, around the age of 50 years and upwards, we must not relax our vigilance and our knowledge of coronary heart disease, since this disease originated from the negligence of us when we were young. 



Coronary arteries are blood vessels that supply the heart with blood. The coronary arteries were more specifically provides that there is oxygen-oxygen in the blood to the muscle - heart muscle found in the heart wall. This is especially need to be maintained for a person to survive because the oxygen-oxygen will be used for the respiration of heart muscle for the heart to continue pumping blood throughout the body. 

If the oxygen-oxygen can not be channeled properly to the heart muscles, the heart will become weak and unable to provide blood to all parts of the body. As a result, the person will die because of biological processes within itself can not be done because the organs of the body does not get the nutrients and oxygen from the blood. In coronary heart disease, coronary arteries become increasingly narrow and sometimes blocked. This causes the blood can not be channeled properly to the heart muscles. At this early stage, perhaps the patient can still breathe normally and blood flow to the heart muscle is still pretty. 

However, when he made the exhausting activities such as exercise or scold other people, the narrowed coronary arteries can not supply enough blood to the heart muscles. In fact, at present, the heart requires more blood for the body to get enough energy to do an activity that was exhausting. The sufferer can fall unconscious and unconscious, and even can be directly passed away. Narrowing of the coronary arteries is usually called arteriosclerosis, and one form of arteriosclerosis is narrowing because of saturated fat, which is called atherosclerosis. In this process, fats build up in arteries and thickening of the wall produces a rough surface on the walls of the arteries and narrowing of the coronary arteries. 

This makes the possibility of blood clots in the arteries that narrows it. If the blood continues to clot, then no more blood can flow because the blood is blocked by a blood clot that had become hard. If there is no more blood can flow through the coronary arteries, then the patient will experience a heart attack. At this stage the patient is unable to continue aktivitinya and would fall limp because there are parts of the heart muscle that has died because of not getting enough blood. 

Patients who had a heart attack need to be immediately taken to the hospital and get treatment immediately, such as providing oxygen for him not to enter a critical phase. However, if part of a dead heart muscle is very large, the impact experienced by the person will be very fatal, and can bring that person to death. 

Therefore, since our youth should avoid fatty foods such as animal fats. This animal fat is saturated fat and should be replaced with plants that are not dangerous. 

In fact, plant fats can lower cholesterol levels in the blood and if we often do not exercise and has high blood pressure, then our chances of coronary heart disease is very small.
