Heart Surgeon Prof. said that heart patients can eat meat on Eid-al-Adha without disrupting their diet or overdoing it. Dr. İhsan Bakır warned against consuming excessive amounts of fatty meat.

Dr. İhsan Bakır said that patients do not act consciously enough and this invites serious health problems. Bakır said: “Fat meat contains a lot of saturated fat. If a large amount of meat is consumed with additional salt, it may cause problems in people with cardiovascular disease, diabetes and hypertension. During these periods, there are many applications to emergency services due to heart problems due to consumption of fatty and salty meat. It will be more beneficial for the health of diabetic or hypertensive patients with coronary heart disease to choose less and especially lean meat in quantity during Eid al-Adha." He did an explanation. Emphasizing that red meat consumption is quite high during Eid-al-Adha and that the days after the Eid are days when cardiovascular patients frequently apply to emergency services, Professor General of the Çekmece Region.

Our patients with heart failure can consume sacrificial meat, provided that it is not salty. Our bypass patients can easily consume sacrificial meat after leaving the hospital.
