Blood Pressure, Heart Attack Signs & the Silent Risks You Can’t Feel

Blood Pressure, Heart Attack Signs & the Silent Risks You Can’t Feel5 okt57 min

How healthy is your heart? Would you know if your blood pressure was too high? And could you recognise the signs of a heart attack?

This week, Cherry Healey and Dr Amir Khan break down the silent risks that can affect your heart without obvious symptoms, including high blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar, and explain the warning signs you should never ignore.

They also look at why heart attacks can present differently in women, what changes after the menopause, and what to do if someone suddenly collapses.

Plus, in Chat GP, they answer a listener’s question about osteopenia and whether bone density can be improved.
