There are habits that destroy the heart.
The most famous is smoking. After all, nicotine and other harmful substances have a negative effect on the heart and blood vessels, causing a lot of serious problems.
In addition, heart problems arise in the case of a sedentary lifestyle, stress and alcohol abuse.
But there is another habit that also has a negative effect on the heart. Not everyone knows about it.
We are talking about unhealthy eating habits, which also cause serious damage to health.
Cardiologist Anastasia Fomicheva told Gazeta.Ru about this.
She noted that excess saturated fat and sugar leads to high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, as well as heart attacks and strokes.
The doctor also emphasized that those who overdo it with salty foods risk experiencing swelling and high blood pressure.
