The problem is the diet (diabetes) and over medication for the blood pressure which prevents enough blood to the brain.

@@MMimi-mg4qt exactly. Also, my dads father passed away in 1952 from a heart attack, aged only 44, so partly genetic too. My dads older brother, a very fit, muscular police officer during the 60s, 70s and 80s, also had heart problems, and died of a heart attack aged 79, but did not develop dementia, although he may have, had he lived as long as my dad. So that’s practically all his brothers and sisters have had similar health conditions. I think people who inherit health conditions like this may have to work a little harder to keep them at bay. My dad never smoked or drank alcohol, and his diet was pretty good. Hence, he lived a fairly healthy life until these conditions took over.

@@eveoakley6270 In my opinion, and some more qualified researchers, most of the health problems are individual and ppl having the same bad habits get easily classified as "genetic"problems - excuse for not taking serious discipline in right food choices and healthy habits, treating cause instead of results, relying on very dangerous medication ( that can seriously damage one thing while "healing" other) instead living healthy.

@@MMimi-mg4qt I’m not saying it’s not down to lifestyle, but there are genetic tendencies too. If you have a family history of heart disease you are more likely to develop heart disease yourself. Different types of heart disease and related conditions, such as hypertension and high cholesterol, can run in families. It is very telling that my dads father died of a heart attack at the age of only 42, then all of his offspring get the same conditions. None of them were overweight and out of the five of them only one ever smoked. Out of them, five of their offspring have high high blood pressure, two of them since their twenties, one of them is now 60, also never smoked or ever been overweight. I’m all for being responsible for your own health, as I have always been. Now aged 62, specialised chem review status - all normal. That includes Lipids non-fasting/cholesterol, Thyroid function, Serum free T4 level, HBA1C (diabetes), Blood pressure, liver function, urea & electrolytes and blood oxygen saturation. However, I fainted last March due to being dehydrated through suffering a bout of Norovirus. I smashed my skull of a concrete floor and suffered a traumatic brain injury which caused a brain bleed. I have bounced back, but I’m now being pestered by my GP to take Statins. They can shove them because I fail to see if everything is normal and my brain bleed was caused by outside trauma through fainting I’m at a loss as to why I should take them.

Many people are not willing to change their habits! I saw both my brothers eat their way into the grave with morbid obesity, diabetes, and heart failure. Trying to get them to change their diets was like talking to a wall.

This is sadly 😥 TRUE.

No money in it...as well as ppl believing only in poisonous pills

High Blood pressure is a scam. It is caused by the anxiety of waiting for the doctor.

Maybe you have to readapt your computer...

Clear as a bell on my I phone? Australia

Well, that's your loss then...

Okay I will watch it I have a problem with an ear due to cabin drop So it still hurts to some sounds

Very simple: Most patients with high blood pressure are not consistently reaching normal values. They do not take their drugs or not regularly, their doctor thinks 150mmHg is good enough etc. - well documented in numerous studies.

@@ThomasLuscher-kj7dkThat’s not very simple and it’s the easy way out. Always saying there are not enough meds or people don’t she it etc. This issue is anything but simple.

Overmedicated for pressure while having diabetes - winning combination

It's is the drugs causing the dementia.

Yes, we can normalize blood pressure, but it reuires an optimal combination of drugs and the ambition to reach 130/80mmHg or even better less. Afib can be prevented with optimal BP control, avoiding obesity, modertae, but not exccessive csports and when it occurs treating it effectively

My mother checked all those "boxes." In her 60's she had several ischemic strokes. They stopped after about 3 months and never returned. 20 yrs later...she got A-Fib. The moment she was diagnosed with that...she began to Decline. She convinced herself that A-Fib meant "certain death". She was on it for two years before her death. By 85...she had FULL-BLOWN Vascular Dementia. I am not sure when she was given BP Medicine but likely many years ago...after the "mini-stroke period" I know she was taking it towards the end of her life. She was diagnosed with VD in 2021. She died in her sleep...in May 2023. It was incredibly fast. The doctors told us that because Vascular Dementia Plaques move more quickly to the brain through the blood vessels and arteries...it can END Someone much more quickly than Alzheimers does. I'll vouch for that reality. My father currently has Alzheimers. Both our parents had different forms of Dementia...at the same time. He was diagnosed 4 years ago but can still function some...but he is approaching Severe ALZ. However...he is still more functional than my mother with her VD was. Our father has no other health conditions...so he could live some more years still...while declining into a vegetative state. I consider that a Miserable FATE. Statistics say that 1 out of 3 people will get some form of cognitive decline...and not the OLD AGE kind. We have a family friend who was diagnosed with ALZ 15 yrs ago and she only stopped speaking...3 months ago. She had been semi-functional at HOME with ALZ for the first 10 yrs and in a Dementia Ward for the past 5 years. She went from being a World Traveler...to being in a non-communicative state 15 yrs later.. She is still breathing on her own and eating some...so she may stick around some more years. I cannot imagine struggling with any of these diseases for that many years. That is horrifying. Our SAVING...will be CRISPER TECHNOLOGY. Scientists say THAT will make these diseases "a thing of the past." It's gonna likely be too late for some of us...but at least we can be hopeful that our children and our descendants will NEVER deal with these horrors in their lifetimes. Cancers, MS, ALS, Quadriplegia, Paralysis, Parkinsons...all will become a part of our past...like Cholera, Polio, and other Life-Stealing Diseases ARE. To anyone watching this video...I hope none of you have to deal with any of these horrific diseases yourselves.

I can hear the audio fine. I strongly suggest you get your hearing checked.

Id rather deal with the shits than pain or a heart attack

@@onetwocue I agree with the pain but how does colchicine relate to heart attacks? You mean that elevated uric acid levels damage your heart? If so, colchicine DOES NOT lower uric acid levels. Your high uric acid is still there and is till damaging your joints. Colchicine just stops your body from addressing that problem. It's a patch, not a solution. Just copy and paste from arthritis website: "An attack of gout is caused when the body’s immune system attacks uric acid crystals that form in the joints, tendons and surrounding tissues. Colchicine works by disrupting the ability of immune system cells to replicate. This helps to reduce inflammation and patients who take colchicine can benefit from reduced swelling and pain associated with gout attacks. " If you wish to address the problem permanently, use uric acid lowering medications such as allo.

The only one I've encountered is diarrhea. After a couple days of this building up in your system you'll start to experience torrents of it. This isn't a daily preventative medicine for gout, it's something you don't take unless you are having an attack. Take allopurinol as a preventative but keep some colchicine on hand for attacks.

The best to stimulate NO is exercise, I am afraid... shearstress increases the expression of eNOS. Easy indeed. Best

Diarrhea is a common side effect of this dug….

But isn’t that good because it’s clearing out your system?

Sorry to hear that, sex disfunction is also one symptom of long covid, I'm also experiencing this with my sleep problem. I couldn't get a deep sleep nowadays, so in the morning, I don't have such morning erection, also I have very low sex drive now, bit sad.

@@elioelioinmel5336 Yeah it really gets to you at an existensial level. Our sex drive is probably one of the stronger forces that drives through life in general. Lately I've been thinking that maybe we with long covid symptoms have developed sleep apnea? If the autonomic nervous system is affected, maybe our autonomic breathing patterns are affected while we sleep? That would explain a lot of the symptoms, including erectile dysfunction. I've read that somewhere... That it isn't unusual for people developing sleep apnea after covid infection.

@@ChrisKadaver I read that long covid does affect the nerve system, somebody says the vagus nerve. I believe that is the cause of insomnia, headache, etc. The vagus nerve is responsible for the regulation of internal organ functions, such as digestion, heart rate, and respiratory rate, as well as vasomotor activity, and certain reflex actions, such as coughing, sneezing, swallowing, and vomiting.

@@elioelioinmel5336 Yes that is correct. Also erectile function. But other than that can a damaged vagus nervre most likely also cause sleep apnea. And sleep apnea in itself can cause a high heartrate, erectile dysfunction, high isolated diastolic blood pressure (which I have got after covid), and in the long run it can cause heart failure if not treated. So I think it can be a mixture of different things. I also did get numbness in the genital area and severe back pain when I got sick. So I also suspect I got some nerve damage as well locally in the sacral area, or that I have some chronic inflammation because I have had pain in my hips the last year also.

@@ChrisKadaver that's sad, do you take any antibiotics or antiinflammatory, do you think that will help

Dear colleague, very good question, yes there are initial studies suggesting that. Wait for the next InsideCardiology on Long Covid at the end of the month. Best

What is the possible therapy please?

How are u now ?? Im having the heart palpitations too

Are we speaking of people with palpitations during post vaccination? I am being skeptical as i was a front line worker in senior care. Jabbed myself with not too nice side effects.

@@carmella88 Hi! I have now for three months avoided histamines in my diet. So more or less only eating chicken with either rice or potatoes and my severe palpitations are now gone. I figured I always got severe palpitatipns after dinner since 2 years back. So I guess I for some reason no longer can tolerate histamines in foods at all. I haven't been evaluated for MCAS or similar but I will ask my GP to do so, if possible.

Dear See, sorry for responding late - very good to hear from you and see that you are fine and active. Glad to see that you work in you own clinic. Send me a picture and your address for our alumni collection ([email protected]). Happy New Year! Best regards

Yeah horrible audio

same can't understand anything
