Think your immune system is the sole protector of your body? Think again! The immune system plays an interesting role in #myocarditis. While it does fight intruders, it also has the potential to damage your heart! Check out my #infographic if you want to learn more! 😀#biom4180

Sounds like an easy way to lower the risk of heart disease but more research needs to be done. There may be underlying side effects that are yet to be discovered #biom4180

@bhav_aishwarya This was a really cool article! I found it interesting how there are some other visible indicators, like baldness, that could be potentially associated with an increased risk of heart disease as well! #biom4180

As a proud mother of two dogs, I am glad to say that having a dog may actually have some health benefits! Researchers found that dog owners have a 65% decreased risk of death by heart attack! So protect your heart and get a dog! #biom4180

Turns out eating #tofu may decrease the risk of heart disease in women. Soy-based foods produce compounds called isoflavones which are generally associated with improving overall heart health. #biom4180

A study has found an association between olive oil consumption and decreased risk of coronary heart disease. Looks like we should try swapping out butter for this heart healthy alternative! #biom4180

@MuneebUofG Home visits are so beneficial, yet not done enough! There are so many people in these rural communities who are unable to physically seek medical help. I am glad to see this being implemented. Simple actions can make a big difference. #biom4180

[Sangeetha Atheray @SAtheray]

@anamikadutta99 Wow this was a very interesting read! I can't believe the lodging of a kernel in this man's teeth led to the diagnosis of a heart murmur and later endocarditis! 😮 #biom4180

[Sangeetha Atheray @SAtheray]

Turns out your #bubblebath can actually improve your heart health! Studies have found that bathing can decrease your risk of heart disease by increasing hemodynamic function! #biom4180

@bhav_aishwarya This is unfortunate to hear especially with #COVID19. With the economy going through a recession and increased unemployment rates, hopefully the government can help lift this financial burden on those most affected. #biom4180

The beauty industry constantly preaches about the benefits of biotin supplements. This article suggests that biotin supplementation can interfere with blood tests used to diagnose heart attacks. Are beautiful hair and nails really worth the risk? #biom4180

Found this interesting article that addresses how to differentiate between a panic attack and heart attack. Even though some of the symptoms are very similar there are key identifiers of both events that we should all be aware of. #biom4180

@CardiologyKasia @fitbit That a really great idea! Thanks for sharing! I'm going to try that as well!! #biom4180

[Sangeetha Atheray @SAtheray]

As students, we are constantly sitting down and studying. After reading this article, I learnt that being sedentary may increase our risk of heart disease and stroke. So whether it is taking a small study break and walking around, try to move whenever possible! #biom4180

[Kasia @CardiologyKasia]

Regardless of how much physical activity you get, a prolonged period of sedentary time is associated with an increased risk of heart disease. This is a reminder for everyone, especially during this time of #selfIsolation to sit less and move more #biom4180 https://t.co/6tGMN6VT6s

Research has found an association between heavy alcohol consumption and increased risk of atrial fibrillation. I also found it interesting that men have a higher risk of developing atrial fibrillation in comparison to women! #sexdifferences #biom4180

@bhav_aishwarya My mom has been buying fish oil tablets for years, but I was not clear of the associated benefits. I am glad to see that omega-3 fatty acids have a protective effect on the heart and lower the risk of all types of mortality! #biom4180

[Sangeetha Atheray @SAtheray]

A study by McMaster University investigated the association between egg consumption and cardiovascular disease. Turns out that eating one egg a day does not significantly affect blood lipid levels or increase your risk of cardiovascular disease! #biom4180

This study investigated the risk of cardiovascular disease in multiple sclerosis patients. It was found that there is increased incidence of risks associated with cardiovascular disease, such as myocardial infarction, present in MS patients. #biom4180

Looks like getting #beautysleep not only affects your beauty but also your heart health! This study found an association between decreased sleep duration and increased risk of subclinical atherosclerosis. #sleep #biom4180

A cohort study observed the implications of processed and red meat consumption on the heart. It was found that there is an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in individuals who ate processed meats. #biom4180
