The heart is about the size of fist and weighs about 300 grams in an adult. But the amount of money spent on treatment weighs a lot more heavily on individual finance and lifestyle.
Heart disease fact sheet
1. About 17.5 million die of heart diseases every year. This amounts to 31% of the total deaths occurring in the world.
2. More than 75% heart disease related deaths occur in lower income and middle income countries.
3. 80% of heart illness related deaths are due to heart attacks and strokes.
The figures are large and thus there is a lot that needs to be known and prevented as well. The best way to know about the heart is by listening to a person who is closely related to the heart. A cardiologist garners knowledge that is in depth and always keeps updating himself with the latest advances in the field of cardiology. A cardiologist sees thousands of patients suffering from heart illness and has an edge over others in this field.
Here is an opportunity for all to know about your heart.
