Do you know the fastest growing age group for heart attacks? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. If you’re like most people, you think that heart disease and heart attacks are for old overweight men. This faulty thinking has led to misdiagnosis and death in many cases. I bet you didn’t know that heart disease is the top cause of death in women. Or did you know that while heart attacks are on the decline overall, the fastest growing demographic is the under 40 group. Changes in diet, extreme stress, and lack of sleep all make this demographic a real target. The point is, that both men and women and those under 40 need to have regular physical exams and pay attention and report any symptoms, especially those associated with heat attacks.
