As we observe World Heart Day, Dr. Tushar Kanti Das, Director, Medical Services, TRL Krosaki Hospital, shares his perspective on heart health and the importance of prevention.
Here's what he had to say:
"A healthy heart is at the centre of a healthy, productive and fulfilling life. Our heart works continuously for us, yet its health is often overlooked until symptoms arise. Heart disease and stroke can be influenced by common, modifiable risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, to***co use, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, excess body weight and stress. Many of these risks develop silently, making prevention and early detection especially important.
This year, let us make a meaningful commitment: Don't Miss a Beat. Know your blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Stay physically active, choose healthy foods, manage stress, sleep adequately and avoid to***co in every form.
Please also listen to your body. Chest discomfort, unexplained breathlessness, palpitations, fainting, unusual fatigue or excessive sweating should never be ignored. Seeking timely medical attention can make a significant difference. Heart health is not only an individual concern. It is a shared responsibility of workplaces, families and communities. Let us encourage healthy choices, regular activity, preventive screening and timely medical care for ourselves and those around us.
Know your risk. Make a healthy choice today. Encourage someone you care about to do the same.
This World Heart Day, let us choose prevention over postponement. Don't Miss a Beat. Protect your heart and inspire others to do the same."
At TRL Krosaki, we believe that the health and well-being of our employees, their families and the communities around us are fundamental to building a safer, healthier and more sustainable future.
