NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Having children increases the risk of heart disease and stroke by 14% compared to not having children, according to a new study.
During pregnancy, pregnancy is usually fetal health and the health of the pregnant woman is often overlooked, but according to these findings, mothers should pay more attention to nutrition and other life factors to prevent heart disease.
According to the study published in the European Journal of Critical Cardiology, every child is more likely to present a 4% risk of heart disease, while neutralizing other factors such as weight, diabetes, pressure arterial and smoking.
The study was conducted under the auspices of the European Society of Cardiology and is based on the health data of more than 3 million women collected in 10 previous studies, of which 150 000 were diagnosed with heart disease and stroke.
The research team explained why the increased risk to the heart after pregnancy and delivery was that fat accumulation around the abdomen and in the blood vessels with increased pregnancy weight could have a lasting effect on increased inflammation of the body, which led to heart disease.
The results of the study have recommended pregnant women to get rid of their unhealthy habits during pregnancy and after childbirth, to pay attention to movements and physical activity, to choose healthy foods and avoid smoking to protect the heart.
