Abstract

India is a big nation developing fast in each sector. The development also led to changes in lifestyle and associated diseases among the Indians. There are extensive uses of contaminated food, tobacco uses, increasing tensions in life, consumption of diet having low vitamins, and alcohol abuse, all directly or indirectly resulting in the genesis of heart diseases. The lack of exercise as a daily routine and consumption of junk foods like pizza burger instant noodles increase the prevalence of heart disease among Indians. The review will link the various factors with their association with the genesis of heart disease. As it's rightly said that prevention is better than cure, so everyone needs to look after maintaining good health. The Indians have nice preventive therapeutics in yoga and ayurveda, which is now the need for society to adopt at a fast pace to prevent cardiovascular disease. It is recommended that they do not open their hearts they are in front of surgeons but rather open their hearts to friends and relatives for happy living, reducing tensions. The review assesses factors interrelated to heart disease onset with available preventive options and recommendations for the government for policy changes about heart disease in India.
