WHY IS A HEART CHECKUP EVEN REQUIRED? Dr Ranjit Jagtap Daughter states the key reason, when your body starts participating in an average to high activity, there is a slight increase in the risk of heart attack or cardiac complication. Many people blame nature for the sudden deaths in gyms but the real reason is not taking heart health seriously and not getting the checkup done on time. Before starting a physical activity check, if you’re someone who has a weak internal medical condition or is suffering from hypertension or has any family history related to the heart. If yes, then you should deeply take care of yourself and consult him for a proper checkup.
