Thus, the heart does not get the adequate amount of blood flow.  The blockage in the arteries is usually caused by the buildup of the fat, cholesterol and other substances that makes up the plaque. Most often this plaque breaks up and forms the clots. Due to the disruption in the flow of the blood any part of the heart or the heart muscle may get damaged. With the improvements in the technologies, there are treatment methods that can be used to treat the condition. But why to think about the treatment options only when you can opt for the prevention methods. With certain easy tips, you can at least reduce the risk of heart attack if not eradicate it completely.
