Increased mortality from heart attack
Not only is heart attack a problem in India but the disease is spreading rapidly in India. Bollywood's most famous singer KK died of a heart attack on Tuesday at the age of 53.
Earlier, Kannada superstar Puneet Rajkumar also said goodbye to the world because of this. In addition, there are many actors who, despite being healthy, have said goodbye to the world due to heart attack.
Increase in the number of deaths from heart attack every year
According to one report, 272 out of one lakh people in India die of heart disease every year. While the world average is 235 per 1 lakh. About 13 to 14 lakh people become heart patients every year. Of these, 8% die within 30 days of a heart attack, meaning that about 1.25 million people die within 30 days of a heart attack.

A big revelation in research
Dr. Robert J. Minn, director of the Institute of Cardiovascular Imaging at Presbyterian Hospital and Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, said that smoking increases the risk of heart disease. "We have studied the differences between cardiovascular disease and smoking cessation," he said.
The study involved 13,372 heart patients from 9 European countries. Among the patients were 2,853 smokers, 3,175 who quit smoking and 7,344 people who never smoked. Two years after the research began, it was found that 2.1 percent of those surveyed died of a heart attack.
