Most heart attacks occur first thing in the morning upon waking, as your body releases stress hormones into your bloodstream to prepare your body to get moving. This rise may cause a cardiac event if your arteries are already sufficiently clogged with cholesterol-rich plaque.

Many things could trigger a heart attack, but in order to prevent most cardiac events, you really need to start at the prevention stage, rather than trying to avoid everything that might trigger an attack.
A good place to start is to go through this checklist on How to Determine Your Cardiovascular Health, which includes both blood tests and simple do-at-home tests to help you determine if you’re at risk of developing heart disease. About 20 percent of heart attacks go undetected, so checking your susceptibility is a good idea.
I think you meant mongoloide as in a metally retarded person (Down's Syndrome)
annapavlova42,
Your definition of mongalode--MONey Grabbing Anal Leaders Of DEceit (nice acronym!)--sounds pretty close to what I refer to as white-collar sociopaths.
Ordinary sociopaths, like serial murderers, are retail killers. The white-collar variety are strictly wholesale, while maintaining the conceit of being decent human beings.
ALSO, RECALL THAT REALLY COOL ARTICLE THAT WAS POSTED NOT LONG AGO: P.A.C.E.
IT MAY HAVE SAVED ME FROM HAVING A HEART ATTACK.
It's rather more complex and involved than merely "fast food" consumption. I've been in a fast food establishment maybe 6 times in 74 years, yet I do have hypertension and type 2 diabetes. My father also had both and never ever entered a McDonalds because it did not exist in Germany 50 years ago.
Dorle - you don't have to go to a fast food den to have hypertension ot type 2 diabetes - just carry on eating hydrogenated fats(You will find them in biscuits, pastries, cakes, pies and anything else that the manufacturers put them in to extend shelf life- and of course, that healthy substitute for butter - magerine!!!) CHECK THE LABELS ALWAYS.
I have read that in 1900 there was no Type 2 diabetes, this starting to appear later on in the deacade. This could be caused by that fact that people were beginning to live longer, so that the Diasbetes and CHD began to appear, or is it a coincidence that hydrogenated oils were introduced in the first decade of the 20th. century, I wonder.
I enjoy a Mediterranean diet and was shocked to learn that I had Angina.
.
I was prescribed tablets and told to try them, this was not good enough for me, I asked the consultant what was the next step, he said an Angiogram was the blue chip test to definately confirm if there was a problem.
I requested the Angiogram and the diagnosis was confirmed.
The very next day I started a diet and in 9 days lost 1.5 stone; thats 21 lbs in weight, and felt marvellous.
breakfast is a bowl of cold skimmed milk; not too much, quaker oats, dried cranberries, two dried apricots, walnuts with also sometimes additionally a whole chopped banana........with a cup of ordinary skimmed milk'd tea.
I eat smaller amounts of food, haven't had sugar or salt for 15 years; now use lime, lemon to taste in salads.
I eat lots of coloured sweet peppers, tomatoes; fruit and vegetables.
Each day; a glass of red wine and a teaspoon of Armagnac brandy; recently an article prescribed this particular brandy especially good for the heart.
Since late 2006 and upto two monts ago, I could only walk about 300 yards before having to stop with chest ache.
Now I am able to walk each day, without any problems one to one and a half miles in the morning before work, and......still taking my medication, but no Aspirin, this made me feel ill and caused problems. I decided to stop taking Aspirin and subsituted it immediately with one 1,000mg of Cod liver oil capsule daily at breakfast.
Something has change inside me and I don't know what, I still have Angina as seen in the Angiogram, can now walk at weekends three and half miles in a day with no problems and now wonder what is going on.
Raw eggs (range free) works well. Raw grass feed beef works well too.
