Heart Attack
A heart attack occurs when the blood flow carrying oxygen to the heart muscle is severely reduced or stopped. This happens when the coronary arteries, the arteries that supply the heart with blood, become thick and blocked with the extra buildup of plaque, fat and cholesterol.
Having a heart attack is a life-changing event and it’s completely normal to feel scared or overwhelmed during the recovery process. Most individuals return back to their normal lives after their first heart attack and enjoy many more years of productive activity. But, having a heart attack does mean that individuals should make changes to their lifestyle, and preventing another heart attack should be their top priority.
At Sun Health Wellness, our team is here to support you through your recovery process and after, so you can reduce your risk of having another heart attack and improve your overall health and wellbeing.
