No, your doubts are unfounded. You are a normal person who just happens to be left handed. Take care of your heart health like all of us should do-eat healthy, exercise moderately, no smoking or bad fats & no negative stress.

Dear lybrateuser, -There is no evidence to suggest that doing or lifting weight by left hand causes heart problems, the effect of doing any work from either side will have the same effect on the body.
