It's not unusual
for people to feel a pain directly behind their
breastbone and think that it
can't be
their heart, because everyone knows that is in the
left side of the chest.
It's not unusual, but it's wrong.
While people think that the problem is in their
airways, it is
often
(36)
their
heart, Helmut Gohlke of the German Association
says.
The
(37)
, known as angina
(
心绞痛
), reveals itself as
pain behind the breastbone. It's an
illness where the blood
(38)
to the heart muscle is restricted. If
not
(39)
and
treated in
a timely manner, it can lead to a heart attack and
death.
The
pain behind the breastbone
radiates
mostly
to the throat,
the upper abdomen
and the
left
arm.
It is
(40)
described as a dull, wearing feeling
of compression, says Christian Hamm of the
German Heart Association. Women often

On

almost

It
is
just
possible,
though,
that
almost
everyone is wrong. In
fact, getting fat may be a mechanism that protects
the body. The health
problems
(36)
with fatness may not be
caused by it but be another consequence, another
symptom, of overeating.
That is the heretical

of

whose

is
not

understood. The
symptom of metabolic syndrome that appears first
is usually fatness, so this is

Dr.
Unger

Dr.
Scherer,
however,
turn

on

They

that

becoming overweight and his

If the

that would not be the case. This is one of the
