A cardiologist, candidate of medical sciences, clinical psychologist Anna Korenevich said that some foods are dangerous for the heart, but more food harms people with stress.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) ) are the leading cause of death worldwide: no other cause causes as many deaths each year as CVD.

They are most often ill people with a certain diet. We are talking about:

  • fast carbohydrates (sweets, muffins, potatoes, white rice, pasta)
  • red meat and its processed products (sausages, sausages)
  • trans fats
  • canned food, including vegetables
  • palm oil
  • salt

– These products are recommended to be strictly prohibited for a patient with a heart attack. Why doesn't this lead to anything good? Because in practice, strict dietary restrictions increase stress and negative emotions, – the doctor wrote in her blog.

According to her, the cause of a heart attack is stress, not poor nutrition. Excess weight, when people eat their problems, is also a consequence of chronic stress, like a heart attack.

To get rid of the disease, you must, first of all, change your lifestyle, and start not with strict prohibitions. First of all, you need to work with stress, and then learn the principles of nutrition and implement them step by step into your life, the doctor emphasizes.

– When you do not have anxiety, fear, tension, your body itself will begin to choose healthy foods: fruits, vegetables, greens, fresh fish, lean meat, nuts, – said Korenevich.

Heart attacks and Strokes occur mainly as a result of blockages in blood vessels that prevent blood from flowing to the heart or brain. The most common reason for this is the formation of fatty deposits on the inner walls of the vessels that supply blood to the heart or brain.
