Why Are Young People Having More Heart Attacks?

Heart attacks are often thought of as something that affects only older adults. Yet, in recent years, more cases among younger people have made headlines and sparked concern. In this episode of The Orange Club Podcast, Dr. Dimpu Edwin explains why this trend is being noticed and what factors may be driving it.

Is It Really a South Asian Problem?

Reports often suggest that South Asians are at higher risk, but the truth is more nuanced. While no region is singled out, lifestyle patterns in this part of the world, high stress, less activity, and shifting diets may be amplifying the risks for younger adults.

Lifestyle Habits That Quietly Strain the Heart

Modern routines often trade movement and nutrition for convenience. Long hours at desks, hectic commutes, and stress-heavy work cultures leave little room for activity. Add in processed, calorie-dense foods that replace balanced meals, and the heart ends up shouldering a hidden burden long before age becomes a factor.

Why Fitness Must Become Non-Negotiable

A key point raised in the discussion is how many people still treat fitness as optional and something to be done if there’s extra time. But regular activity isn’t a luxury; it’s a shield for the heart. Daily exercise improves circulation, reduces stress, and balances weight, all of which are vital in lowering the risk of heart disease at a younger age. Pairing this with mindful eating, choosing whole foods over processed ones ensures that the body is fuelled to support a healthier heart long term. Making fitness and nutrition a priority today builds resilience for tomorrow.
