    These days many die because of heart attack at a very early age. Time for all to check habits, keep a track on food intakes, activities and monitor cholesterol, BP and Sugar levels. Do not take it easy because we are all eating chemicals everyday.

    No walk...main reason.
    Journalism is stress job.
    Sitting all long. No propper food at right time. More of involved with junk food. No sleep at right time. Watching too much TV.

    Sad news. If at all it happenned in a hospital, we could have manhandled the doctors blaming them for negligence. Now whom to blame? RIP.
