Jammu, June 01 : In order to educate the masses regarding the ever importance of religion and spirituality in preventing cardiovascular diseases by educating people about ill effects of tobacco and associated substance abuse Head Department of Cardiology GMCH Jammu Dr Sushil Sharma held a day long cardiac awareness cum health check up camp at Shri Anandpur  Satsang Ashram Bari Brahmana Samba with a purpose to make people aware of this dimension of healthcare particularly with reference to cardiac ailments.

While interacting with the people Dr Sushil Stated that Tobacco’s effect on the cardiovascular system is both insidious and immediate. Smoking leads to the buildup of fatty substances in the arteries (atherosclerosis), reducing blood flow and increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Nicotine, the addictive component of tobacco, raises blood pressure, accelerates heart rate, and places immense strain on the heart. Carbon monoxide, another harmful compound in tobacco smoke, displaces oxygen in the blood, forcing the heart to work harder to supply the body. Even passive or secondhand smoke can significantly increase the risk of CVD in non-smokers, especially children and the elderly.

He said that religious institutions have historically played a central role in shaping societal values, providing spiritual comfort, and fostering healthy behaviors. In the fight against tobacco, their influence can be both preventative and transformative. Most religions emphasize respect for the body as a sacred vessel. By highlighting the moral imperative to protect one’s health, religious leaders can inspire individuals to reject harmful habits like smoking. Sermons, teachings, and scriptures can frame tobacco use as not just a health risk, but a spiritual and ethical concern. Faith-based communities offer a unique network of mutual support.

He added that religious institutions can serve as platforms for health education, partnering with medical professionals to spread awareness about the dangers of tobacco. By integrating health initiatives into religious gatherings and festivals, these messages reach even the most remote and underserved populations.

 Dr Sushil Sharma laid emphasis on the fact that Tobacco may be a silent killer, but the voice of faith can be louder. As the world seeks solutions to the growing burden of cardiovascular disease, it must not overlook the profound potential of religious institutions.

Management Committee of the Ashram appreciated the efforts of Dr Sushil and his team for conducting cardiac awareness cum health check up camp.
