HEART BLOCK
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Narrowing of the arteries occurs when fat, cholesterol, and other substances build up in the walls of arteries (atherosclerosis). This narrowing reduces the blood flow and oxygen supply to a segment of the intestine, causing damage (ischemia).

Detailed explanation-2: -Myocardial ischemia, also called cardiac ischemia, reduces the heart muscle’s ability to pump blood. A sudden, severe blockage of one of the heart’s artery can lead to a heart attack. Myocardial ischemia might also cause serious abnormal heart rhythms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Quit Smoking. One of the best ways to prevent or halt the progression of atherosclerosis, which can lead to mesenteric ischemia, is to quit smoking. Maintain Healthy Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Levels. Exercise Regularly. Control Diabetes.
