Heart Disease

Tweet

Since last night I knew that only Cholesterol was responsible for a Heart Attack. High blood pressure is responsible for Heart Attack and Cerebral Attack. Last night I came to know that there is another silent killer, which is known as HOMOCYSTEINE. Men with normal pressure and Cholesterol have died owing to a heart attack and the cause of the attack was that Homocysteine. It is established that approximately 15 percent of all the heart attacks and strokes are the result of elevated homocysteine levels. The important thing to note that the level can be corrected simply by taking B vitamin supplements. TO check the homocysteine level we have to do CRP test. I am seriously considering to check my homocysteine level and to take B vitamin supplements.
