The rate of heart attacks in young Russian men has increased tenfold in just twenty years. The recent death of a 22-year-old movie star, caused by heart failure, has highlighted the serious nature of the condition.

Sarah, it looks as though no one is taking any notice of my comment about Magnesium foods including Black Tea (without sugar) will protect people from heart attacks. I have had Irregular Heart Beat Episodes since Easter 1995. Two Echocardiograms have shown no damage whatsoever. Also Selenium foods protects the brain from strokes.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of this talented actor. The economic trauma of 1990s is showing its damaging effects on Russian people. Russia’s healthy policymakers and the business elite are not doing enough advocate accessibility to relatively cheap healthy food for the entire population.. The Russian society is under increasing weight of the new consumer driven high life and the economic stress. The effect of this dangerous mix is showing even among the young people-who should have been the once with the greatest capacity to resist the harmful effects of these trends. The death of this young man is a warning sign for the Russia’ healthy policymakers and politicians to double and triple their efforts in areas such as diagnostics and medical care but by also undertaking wider promotion of healthy living.
