ശരീരം മെലിഞ്ഞാൽ Heart attack ഉണ്ടാവില്ലേ? | Can Thin People Get a Heart Attack? | Dr.MAHADEVAN.R

Dr.MAHADEVAN.R Chief Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon, Magnum Hospital, Ulloor, TVM Can thin people get a heart attack? Does having a slim body automatically mean your heart is healthy? These are common questions, but body weight alone does not determine your risk of heart disease. Heart attacks are associated with several risk factors, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, physical inactivity, family history and metabolic health. The American Heart Association notes that cardiovascular risk cannot be assessed from body weight alone. Even people who appear slim or have a normal BMI can have risk factors that may not be obvious from their appearance. In particular, abdominal or visceral fat can be associated with cardiovascular risk even when BMI is within the normal range. This is one reason doctors may consider measurements such as waist circumference along with BMI and other health indicators. #HeartAttack #HeartHealth #HeartDisease #HeartAttackRisk #ThinPeople #SlimPeople #Cholesterol #BloodPressure #HeartCare #CardiovascularHealth #HeartDiseaseRisk #HealthyHeart #HealthAwareness For more health related videos, visit Arogya Kaumudy :    / arogyakaumudy   Subscribe Arogya Kaumudy channel : https://www.youtube.com/arogyakaumudy...
