So, what is exactly triggering these incidences in the country? Why are youths dying of heart-related problems? Let's know everything from the experts.

Causes of Sudden Heart Attack Death In India

Heart attacks occur when the blood supply to a part of the heart is blocked, often by a blood clot.

Some of the risk factors include:

  1. Highly stressful life - youths are now stressed, and most of them are dealing with anxiety attacks, this is one of the significant contributing factors behind the sudden spike in heart attack death in youths.
  2. Highly unhealthy lifestyle - this includes poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, poor sleep cycle, etc.
  3. Rising pollution levels contribute to heart diseases by damaging blood vessels and increasing blood pressure.
  4. Excessive alcohol consumption and smoking habits

All these have contributed to the sudden spike in heart attack cases and deaths in the country, especially among the youth.

Apart from lifestyle habits, here are some health conditions that can also contribute to poor heart health:

  1. High cholesterol levels
  2. Diabetes or uncontrolled high blood sugar levels
  3. Stress
