Heart Diseases: No More an Ailment Of The Old
December 04, 2018

We all have a notion about heart diseases- it's an ailment, which people suffer from during old age. Gone are the days when heart ailments used to affect only the old; young people nowadays, are more prone to heart diseases. Almost whatever we consume has traces of pesticides in them, also, not to forget, our love for fried and oily food. As Indians, we must be prepared to cope against certain ailments, especially the ones related to heart because of our food habits and lifestyle. Due to our unhealthy lifestyles and the level of stress that surrounds a person's life, heart ailments are increasing among the younger generations. Certain other factors that cause heart diseases are - abnormal lipid levels in the blood, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, abdominal obesity, low consumption of fruits and vegetables, consumption of alcohol, and lack of physical activity which the youth majorly engages in. The good old days, when going to the doctor and getting ourselves treated was not a matter of serious financial concern are a bygone. Heart diseases do not only include huge medical expenses, but the costs of surgery and post surgery care as well.

According to a report by the World Health Organization cited in Times of India, one person succumbs to a heart attack every 33 seconds and not to forget, youngsters are majority in numbers. The figures certainly cannot mean that you would end up suffering from heart ailments at later date and you may not plan to invest in a plan which will cover for your heart ailments, thinking your chances of being the sufferer is minimal, but is the risk worth taking? Nothing can guarantee your belief that you would not end up suffering from any heart ailment in the future, thus it is always better to invest in a plan which will save you from the high medical costs involved in the treatment of heart ailments.

HDFC Life understands the value and the need to keep your heart healthy. The HDFC Life Cardiac Care Insurance covers for all kinds of heart ailments unlike regular health insurance plans. The premium for this plan is really affordable and some plans also offer hospitalization benefits. HDFC Life cares for your heart as much as you do; start investing towards a plan for a healthy and happy heart
