Winter health alert: Increased heart attack risks and eye care warnings

IndiaTimes Thursday, 21 December 2023
Health experts caution about heightened risks of heart attacks and the need for extra care to protect the eyes during winter due to pollution, temperature drops, and increased outdoor activities. The rise in pollutants can trigger inflammation, exacerbating breathing difficulties in individuals with asthma and smokers. The drop in temperature forces the heart to work harder, making heart attacks more prevalent. The constriction of blood vessels can lead to a spike in blood pressure for hypertensive patients, increasing the likelihood of brain strokes. Lifestyle measures such as exercise, moderate eating, and proper hydration with lukewarm water can mitigate these risks.
