Health experts always warn once morest overeating, suggesting that “heavy meals” stress the heart and can increase the risk of a heart attack.

Dr Shaista Malik, a cardiologist, said: ‘In people who already have blocked arteries in the heart, any shunting of blood away from the heart can lead to angina or chest pain.
The British Heart Foundation states that signs of a heart attack include discomfort in your chest that “comes on suddenly” and “doesn’t go away”, and also includes a feeling of pain that radiates down your arms or to your neck, jaw, back or stomach. Burning pain like indigestion.
