The document summarizes information about the cardiovascular system and heart attacks. It defines a heart attack as a sudden blockage of blood flow to the heart muscle. It notes that heart attacks are diagnosed through risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, and family history as well as blood tests. Treatment options for heart attacks include medication, interventions like bypass surgery. Maintaining a diet high in fruits and vegetables and low in carbohydrates can help cardiovascular health. Yoga asanas and pranayama can also boost circulation and reduce inflammation. Meditation and relaxing the mind can aid in reducing stress.

2.  Heart is an amazing organ. It
continuously pumps oxygen and nutrient-
rich blood throughout your body to
sustain life
 This fist-sized powerhouse beats (expands
and contracts) 100,000 times per day,
pumping 23,000 liters' (5,000 gallons) of
blood every day.

4. There are three main types of blood
vessels
 Arteries. They begin with the aorta, the large artery
leaving the heart. Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood away
from the heart to all of the body's tissues. They branch
several times, becoming smaller and smaller as they
carry blood further from the heart and into organs.
 Capillaries. These are small, thin blood vessels that
connect the arteries and the veins. Their thin walls
enable oxygen, nutrients, carbon dioxide and other
waste products to pass to and from our organ's cells.
 Veins. These are blood vessels that take blood back to
the heart; this blood has a lower oxygen content and is
rich in waste products that will be excreted or removed
from the body. Veins become larger and larger as they
get closer to the heart.

5. Definition of a Heart Attack:
Sudden blockage of blood flow to a
portion of the heart
Medical term: MI, myocardial infarction
(heart muscle damage

6. Survey of Heart Diseases

40% in underdeveloped countries
6,00,000 die in the U.S.A which amounts
to 30 % of the total global deaths
7.3 million die due to Coronary every
year

fruits, parsnips, and winter squash are some
fruits and vegetables which are rich in soluble
fiber.
 Diet which is a combination of vegetables and
fruits get a rich array of antioxidants such as
vitamin C
 Antioxidants prevent the oxidation and damage
of artery walls, which otherwise can lead to
plaque build-up and heart disease

30. Avoid foods
Butter, cheese, cream, Ghee, Yoghurt, Sea foods like
oysters, prawns, shrimps, Crabs, Egg Yolk, shell fish,
in meat Liver, heart, kidney, brain . Nuts like

35.  Yoga builds cardio vascular health,
increase lung capacity, and improves
respiratory function and heart rate
It also boosts blood circulation, builds
muscle and decrease inflammation

36. Yoga Asanas
 Bhujanga asana, Pawanmukta asana, sarvanga
asana, ustra asana, Tadaga asana, Vajara asana

37. MEDITATION:
 To begin meditation, select a quiet time and place. Be seated
on a cushion or chair, taking an erect yet relaxed posture. Let
yourself sit upright with the quiet dignity of a king or a queen.
Close your eyes gently and begin by bringing a full, present
attention to whatever you feel within you and around you. Let
your mind be spacious and your heart be kind and soft. Feel
your breathing, your life-breath. Let your attention feel the in-
and-out breathing wherever you notice it, as coolness or
tingling in the nose or throat, as a rising and falling of your
chest or abdomen. Relax and softly rest your attention on
each breath, feeling the movement in a steady easy way. Let
the breath breathe itself in any rhythm, long or short, soft or
deep. As you feel each breath, concentrate and settle into its
movement. Your attention may be carried away by one of the
waves of thoughts or memories, by body sensations or
sounds.
 If you do this simple practice of sitting and awareness every
day, you will gradually grow in centeredness and
understanding
