Who is most at risk of heart related diseases?

According to health experts, people who take part in extreme endurance sports activities like marathon races or ultra-endurance events have a higher risk of heart diseases. Doing vigorous exercise for a long time can also cause cardiac remodeling, which can sometimes lead to changes in the structure and functioning of the heart that are unhealthy. Due to this, the risk of arrhythmia i.e. irregular heartbeat, coronary artery and myocardial infarction (heart attack) can increase to a great extent.

Why are dietary supplements harmful for the heart?

Dietary supplements such as vitamins, minerals and herbal products are sold as beneficial for heart health. Many of these supplements contain nutrients essential for heart functioning, but some also have adverse effects.
