New Delhi: Heart attack cases at an early age are no longer surprising. Rather, such cases scare now. Because until recently, it was quite surprising to have a heart attack under the age of 40, but now in most cases, the age of the person who has been a heart attack is being seen less than or around 40 years.

In such a situation, the question is bound to arise as to why such a change has happened and why people are falling prey to this deadly disease at an early age.

Heart attack, heart stroke, cardiac arrest and myocardial infarction (MI) are all life-threatening conditions associated with the heart. Until now, these diseases were considered to be related to older age. But now one in every 5 heart attack patients at young age. Acute myocardial infarction or heart attack occurs when the flow of blood coming into the heart muscle suddenly decreases, causing damage to the heart muscles.

The reason for such conditions at an older age was also believed to be the body’s fading functionality and age. But now the way cases of heart attack are being reported even between the ages of 20 and 30 years, these are scary conditions.
