Chris Cantell Discusses Health: When Are You Most Likely to Have a Heart Attack?
by Paulina Neshybova

Heart attack is one of the most dangerous diseases in the world when we of course talk about heart diseases. Among them i tis a number one in killing. The fact if we have heart attack depends on many factors. For example the person´s weight, diet, exercise, smoking and so on and also the stress situations during the day.
But experts say, that except these facotrs, there is something more important. People have a big chance to get heart attack during some parts of the day. One of them is in the morning, just after we wake up, and the second is during the last hours of sleep, when we usually dream. It´s interesting that most of the people think it is in the evening.
Professor Roberto Manfredini explained all these facts. He is a professor of internal medicine at the University of Ferrara in Italy. Not only he, but also other doctors from Harvad estimated that the biggest risk to get heart attack is between 6a.m. and noon wich is about 40%. And the most dangerous are first three hours after waking up, where the percentage is threefold. According to profesor Manfredini the heart attack depends mainly on the disarmony between increased myocardial oxygen demand and decreased myocardial oxygen supply - or both of them. The problem is, that the first hours of the day, when we wake up or are at the state of dreaming require more oxygen support. The changes that occur in our bodies in the morning are of course more dangerous for people who are not healthy at all. It means for people who for example have a plaque in the coronary vessel. But of course its difficult for all of us to minimaze these factors and biological rhytms, theefore if have some problems, we should go to a doctor to give a therapy which would help.
