Let’s make every heartbeat precious”

Ludhiana, September 29 (Punjabi Headline Harminder Singh Kitty)  (World Heart Day):
Ludhiana, September 29 (World Heart Day): On the occasion of World Heart Day, Dr. Gurbhej Singh DM Cardiology and HOD – Cardiac Department, CMC Ludhiana, made people aware about heart health and said that the heart is the most important muscle of our body, which pumps blood every moment and supplies oxygen to every part of the body.

But due to today’s stressful life, wrong eating habits and bad habits, heart diseases are increasing rapidly.

🔎 Main causes of heart disease:

Increasing blood pressure

Sugar (diabetes)

High cholesterol

Smoking and alcohol

Weight gain and lack of exercise

Stress and lack of sleep

✅ Tips for heart health:

1. Adopt a healthy diet

2. Exercise for 30 minutes daily

3. Reduce stress and do yoga/meditation

4. Get regular checkups

5. Stay away from smoking and alcohol

Dr. Gurbhej Singh said:
“The heart beats not just to pump blood, but to keep the love and dreams of our family alive. So let us all take sincere steps to protect heart health.”

The message of this year’s World Heart Day is clear – to make every beat count, to ensure better heart health and greater access to life-saving healthcare.

Millions of people around the world are currently missing out on precious time with their loved ones, missing out on opportunities to take care of their health and missing out on the benefits of strong and sustainable health systems. A major reason for this is cardiovascular disease (CVD) — the leading cause of death worldwide and one that is largely preventable.

Ahead of the UN High-Level Meeting, global health leaders are stepping up efforts to:

Improve access to treatment for high blood pressure

Reduce inequalities in heart health

Increase funding for CVD treatment

The hope is to create a future where no one misses a beat.
