Is a slow heart rate a sign of heart disease?

The heart is a very important organ in the human body. It not only works 24 hours a day, but also works when resting. The heart rate is very important. Too fast or too slow will affect the patient's normal physical condition. Many people will find that their heart is beating fast during the electrocardiogram (ECG) test. This is not necessarily the occurrence of heart disease. It also includes stress, external factors, physical factors and other phenomena.

Steps/Methods:

First of all, a slow heart rate does not necessarily mean a heart disease. There are other factors that affect the speed of the heart rate. If the frequency of arrhythmia occurs only occasionally, and the person involved is a young person (under 20 years old).

Generally, the problem is not serious and does not require treatment. However, if slow heart rate occurs frequently, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an electrocardiogram and other examinations.

Second, to make the heart rhythm more regular, you still need to pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and don't sit often. Proper exercise is very helpful for heart function. If you are under 50 years old, it is recommended that you can participate in some aerobic exercise. You can choose high or low intensity exercise according to your physical condition. If you are an elderly person with poor physical fitness, it is best to practice light and low intensity exercise first.

Third, if you have a slow heart rate frequently, you should pay more attention to rest and eat a lighter diet in your daily life. Don't eat high-calorie or greasy food. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and you can replace them with carrots, red beans and other nutritious foods.
