Youngsters falling prey to heart attacks 

The instances of youngsters falling prey to heart attacks have increased these days. The reasons attributed could range from stress levels to poor dietary habits to a sedentary lifestyle. 

Some of the best ways to keep heart attacks at bay are to lead an active or physically fit life, keep stress under check, saying no to smoking and drinking alcohol.
