Causes, and Symptoms:
Welcome, everyone. Today, we embark on a journey to explore one of the most
prevalent and critical health concerns globally: heart disease.
THE LIFESAVING ENGINE OF THE BODY
The heart is a remarkable organ, tirelessly pumping blood throughout the body,
delivering oxygen and nutrients to every cell while removing waste products.
Located in the chest cavity, slightly left of center, the heart is roughly the size of
a fist and is composed of specialized muscle tissue
TYPES OF DISEASES
● Coronary artery disease (CAD): Blocked arteries due to plaque buildup,
reducing blood flow to the heart.
● Arrhythmias: Irregular heartbeats, caused by problems with electrical
signals.
● Heart valve disease: Damaged valves that impair blood flow.
TYPES OF DISEASES
● Cardiomyopathy: Weakened or enlarged heart muscle.
● Congenital heart defects: Heart abnormalities present at birth.
CAUSES
● Unhealthy lifestyle: High cholesterol, smoking, lack of exercise,
poor diet.
● High blood pressure: Forces heart to work harder.
● Diabetes: Increases risk of heart problems.
● Family history: Genetics play a role.
SYMPTOMS (MAY VARY)
● Chest pain, pressure, tightness, or discomfort (angina).
● Shortness of breath.
● Palpitations (irregular heartbeat).
● Fatigue.

● Pain radiating to arm, jaw, back, or neck.
● Sweating.
● Dizziness or lightheadedness.

[Early detection is crucial! See a doctor if you experience any of
these symptoms]
