Coronary heart disease.
We have not recovered yet from the news of the passing of a much admired Margao
resident member of our forum.
Summer heat can stress the heart, a phenomenon that now engulfs
the rest of the year, thanks to global warming.
So to avoid the heat, it is advisable to spend afternoons indoors in a cool
room. Cold water drinks are a big help with keeping temperatures down.
Your doctor may suggest medications like statin drugs if blood cholesterol
levels warrant it. We as a group opt for fish over meat which helps. Whole milk
is best avoided, God created it for baby cows.
I may skip my annual trips to tropical Goa in future.
