Cardiovascular Disease is Universal Today

We are now living in the 21st century. The world, today, is characterized by many artificial features. Very often we forget that this world has been created by someone who is Omnipotent. We have started to believe that human beings will never annihilate from this world. But this is nothing but an exaggerated view. We are very helpless in the hands of nature. We are made of blood and flesh which are perishable. We are exposed to various physical deformities, complexities and hardships. We are living in a cycle consisting of birth, growth and death. Now if we look at our physical body we see that it is composed of various organs. The heart is one of the few most important organs. Cardiovascular disease is related to the heart.

Now, we shall look into the causes of cardiovascular disease. Our body is filled with blood. This blood runs through the arteries and veins which are called blood vessels together. The heart regulates the blood circulation around all the organs of the body. It receives carbonated blood from the organs and then refreshes it with oxygen and then sends it to all other organs. But due to our food habit and lifestyle our blood is polluted with various elements like cholesterol, saturated fat, sugar, and other elements. Though cholesterol is needed for the blood, but we should always try to reduce high cholesterol.

The various elements of the blood mixed together to form plague. This plague is deposited inside the arteries. As a result the flow of blood inside the arteries is hampered. This will lead to various cardiovascular diseases including heart attack. The doctor, who is a specialist in treating this type of diseases, is called cardiologist. Dr Lim Ing Haan of Singapore is a renowned cardiologist of the world.
