Heart attack is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, and often begins to affect the body before any serious symptoms appear. To prevent the risk of heart attack, it is important to recognize some symptoms early.
Dr. James DiNicolantonio, research scientist and chief nutrition officer at health agency im8health, shared three early warning signs of heart disease that everyone should pay attention to in an Instagram post on October 24.
Dr. DiNicolantonio explains that erectile dysfunction occurs in about half of people with heart disease, and it can occur up to five years before heart disease. Let us know what are its initial symptoms.
Shortness of breath: If you have shortness of breath even during light activity, or climbing a few stairs or doing light exercise gives you unusual shortness of breath, and also chest pain, it is a sign that your heart is struggling.
This is a symptom that should never be ignored, as it may indicate declining heart function or the early stages of coronary artery disease.
Swelling in the feet: Dr. DiNicolantonio warns that swelling in the feet, ankles, or lower legs could be a sign of heart failure or kidney failure.
Fatigue and weakness: If you are feeling a little more tired than usual and your body is beginning to feel weak, this could be an early sign of a heart attack.
