Prof. Tahir Saghir, Executive Director NICVD, breaks down the alarming rise in early age heart disease in Pakistan. From poor lifestyle choices and unchecked medication use during pregnancy, to growing rates of obesity, stress, and inactivity it’s a nationwide concern affecting even children. He emphasizes that while genetic risks are real, most heart disease is preventable through awareness, physical activity, and responsible healthcare practices. Heart health is no longer an issue of old age it’s everyone’s issue now. #nicvd #proftahirsaghir #hearthealth #earlyheartdisease #cardiacawareness
