Being skinny and exercising means no risk of heart attack. Heart disease is always associated with chest pain. Only older adults are at risk for heart diseases, and you have to feel symptoms to have heart disease.
These are some of the common heart health myths debunked in the recent Metro Pacific Health’s educational docuseries, DECODE.
“There are many predisposing risk factors to develop heart disease, stroke and vascular diseases such as hypertension or high blood pressure, high cholesterol in the blood. Stress is also a reason for developing cardiovascular disease, sedentary lifestyle, lack of exercise, being a couch potato.” “But there again is a myth that I would like to debunk. A normal ECG is not synonymous with a normal heart. A normal ECG is not necessarily equivalent to a normal heart,” said Dr. Javier.
“Dementia is a disease, not an unavoidable part of aging. Early diagnosis and proper management are key to improving the quality of life for those affected,” said Dr. Anlacan. One of the most dangerous myths debunked in this episode is the belief that strokes are always painful or only affect older individuals.
