Obestiy

People all over the world are now obesity. The way most people get to the obesity stage is by eating too much fast food. I’m not saying that no one else eats it that is skinny because everyone eats fast food, but some people eat it way too much. A lot of people now these days don’t exercise like they should, they say well I don’t have the time. Well with all that extra fat it makes a lot more work for your heart. Your heart has to push blood through the fat. By doing that your heart is working more than it should so you have a higher chance of getting a heart attack.
BYPASS SURGERY
Coronary angiography may reveal severe coronary artery disease in many vessels, or a narrowing of the left main coronary artery (the vessel supplying most of the blood to the heart). In these circumstances, the cardiologist may recommend emergency coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG). This procedure is also called "open heart surgery." The surgeon takes either a vein or artery from another location in your body and uses it to bypass the blocked coronary artery.
 Most heart attacks are caused by a blood clot that blocks one of the coronary arteries. The coronary arteries bring blood and oxygen to the heart. If the blood flow is blocked, the heart starves for oxygen and heart cells die.
Symptoms of a heart attack include:
•Anxiety
•Cough
•Fainting
•Light-headedness, dizziness
•Nausea or vomiting
•Palpitations (feeling like your heart is beating too fast)
•Shortness of breath
•Sweating, which may be extreme
