IFT / IFS is asking parents and the community to be aware of the risks related to heart-health. Please watch the video by clicking the image below.
The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada recognizes that individual and social risk factors affect the life-long heart health of Canadians. Research has shown that people of South Asian descent are more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes and are at greater risk of heart disease and stroke than the general population. This video tells the true story of Ashok, a South Asian family man as he prepares for, undergoes and recovers from, triple bypass surgery at only 39 years of age. It features actual footage from his cardiac surgery. The video includes an introduction by Shaykh Yusuf Badat and Shaikh Habeeb Alli. The Imams talk about the importance of maintaining a healthy heart for Muslim South Asians.
