Cardiologists Warn of Rising Heart Disease Among Indian Youth

Senior cardiologist Dr. A. Sreenivas Kumar reports a concerning rise in cardiac episodes among Indians under 30, citing sedentary lifestyles and poor dietary habits as primary drivers.

Medical professionals are increasingly performing angioplasty procedures on young adults, noting that conditions like hypertension and high cholesterol are now common in patients previously considered low-risk.

Doctors recommend a daily 30-minute brisk walk, balanced nutrition, and regular health screenings to prevent premature heart disease, urging youth to seek immediate care for symptoms like chest discomfort.
