According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or CDC, it is estimated that by 2030, 12.1 million of the US population will have Atrial Fibrillation. In 2018, almost 15% of the 175,326 deaths pointed out that Atrial Fibrillation was the underlying cause of death. If you are a part of the population that has this disease, this guide will help you understand more about Atrial Fibrillation and will also provide you with how you can manage your symptoms, which will lead to improving your condition. According to the National Institutes of Health or NIH, Atrial Fibrillation, or AFib, is one of the most common types of arrhythmias or irregular heart rhythms. It's a heart condition that causes the heart to have irregular and, oftentimes, abnormally fast heart rates. Even experts aren't entirely sure what causes AFib, but it usually happens when electric impulses abnormally fire up the atria. This causes irregular heartbeats and palpitations, chest pains, and lightheadedness, to name a few. The risk of this disease increases as the patient gets older. It is also noted that 1 out of 7 strokes is caused by AFib. Thus, it's usually given proper medical attention to alleviate symptoms and to improve the condition. In addition to that, you can contribute to this by starting a healthier, heart-friendlier lifestyle, which is what this guide is all about.
