Misinformation about heart health: Heart is the most important part of the body. If there is no heart in the body then life is over. Heart purifies the impure blood from the whole body and pumps the pure blood to the whole body. That’s why heart is called pumping machine. Blood reaches the heart through the arteries and then through the blood vessels it reaches the rest of the body. It is very important for the arteries to be healthy, but due to sedentary lifestyle and wrong eating habits, today most of the people suffer from heart problems. In fact, when dirty cholesterol or other substances start accumulating in the arteries, then it starts blocking the arteries. Due to this blockage, blood does not reach the heart properly. Its worst result comes in the form of heart attack, cardiac arrest, heart failure and stroke. Healthy diet and exercise are very important to make the heart healthy, but in our society, rumors are often spread about the health of the heart, which causes more damage.
