Don’t Want a 2nd Heart Attack? Lose the Belly Fat
For heart attack survivors, a fat belly could mean another one is likely, a new study suggests.
Earlier studies have shown that abdominal obesity puts people at risk for their first heart attack. This new study shows it also ups the odds for a second one, researchers say.
“Abdominal obesity not only increases your risk for a first heart attack or stroke, but also the risk for recurrent events after the first misfortune,” said study author Dr. Hanieh Mohammadi of Karolinska University Hospital in Solna, Sweden.
