Earlier, it was believed that Heart attacks only affected older individuals, but in the post-Covid era, young people aged between 30 to 40 years have been victims of Heart attacks more. Some reports suggest that the rapid rise in heart attack cases is because of fast-paced lifestyles and unhealthy eating habits.
