Al-Marsad newspaper: Dr. Awwad Al-Zaidi, a consultant in family and community medicine and medical education, said that most of the diseases affect women more than men, but the matter is different regarding the attacks of heart, as they mostly affect men for genetic reasons.
Al-Dhaidi added, in an intervention on the Al-Ikhbariya channel, that men’s hearts are sensitive, and this could be among the risk factors, underlining that women also suffer from heart attacks, but not like men.
And he continued: The older the age, the higher the infection rate, and smokers are also infected, as are non-smokers, and psychological stress, obesity, pressure and diabetes are among the most important risk factors.
