Take your pick a Stroke or a Heart Attack

Cardiovascular disease is the world’s number one killer so it’s clear to me that the chances of dying from either a stroke or heart attack is very much on the cards…Or is it?

When the blood vessels that take oxygen and nutrients to the brain are either blocked with a clot or they erupt this leads to a stroke which is a type of cardiovascular disease. When this happens, part of the brain cannot get the blood it requires for oxygen that it needs to survive.

There are many risk factors for someone having a stroke or heart attack. Bad diet, lack of exercise, smoking, obeseity and stress are just some of the reasons that contribute to cardiovascular diseases.

Most of us don’t even know we have a problem until it’s too late. However, some people get warning signs of an impending stroke but you have to make sure that you are aware of them so that you are not putting yourself at risk of even more problems later on. The warning signs may only last a few moments but they may signal a serious conditon that you need to have checked out by your doctor right away.

Some warning signs of a stroke are numbness of the face, leg or arm on one side of the body. You may also notice problems in your vision or a severe headache that comes on all at once. You may notice that you are feelng strangely different but find it hard to describe.
