The Worst Kind of Heart Disease & How to Prevent It

[@skydrow8255]

I feel like something not emphasized in the 4 causes is general stress. Stress can cause all sorts of inflammation in the body, and when chronically stressed will cause the same inflammation in your vessels

I am 69 years old, I had a heart attack last April. I have been active all my life , played soccer regularly for more than forty years, years of martial arts practice and years of competitive swimming, make it short, in a regular and daily swimming about 2 months before heart attacks I felt pain almost everyday in the middle of 50 minutes routine daily swimming but didn’t pay attention because a month prior to this I had a stress treadmill test and I was told that my heart is just fine with no problems, and was told come back in three years. But one day after swimming 2000 meters with no problems when driving back home I had a heart attack I was lucky to survive and the doctor who did angiogram told me that one of main artery of heart had 99% blockage.

[@WYWYWY1]

Did it hurt? From 1 to 10 how much? 1: felt it but not so bothered 3-5 ish: definitely was uncomfortable 7-8: worst pain ever 9,5-10: didn’t wanna live

[@Total_Body_Fitness_USA]

Too much exercise can cause excessive inflammation and lesions within the endothelium which in turn can cause soft plaques to rupture which is what happened in your case and that is why you had a 99% blockage. A stable plaque that builds up over years TO A 90% blockage would have resulted in major pain during exercise along with breathlessness in most cases. So, more than likely you had some blockage because you felt some pain during your exercise sessions. However, a ruptured plaque was the culprit. High dose omega 3s, astaxanthin to prevent omega 3 oxidation, nattokinase, D3/K2, sulforaphane, and high dose niacin are just a few supplements that could help with stabilizing soft plaques. Hope you are doing better!

[@jackkenny4194]

You had a heart attack because the body isn’t supposed to be as active as you are when you’re almost 70. Not only does strenuous excercise above 150 beats per minute increase older individuals chances of heart attack, but it also increases the amount of plaque getting stuck in our arteries due blood and fat being pumped harder through your system. Low intensity, low weight exercises would be the best from now on. Keep your heart under 150bpm

The information here is correct. It's a well done video and even helps a person with high hypercholesterolemia like me. My doctors identified that I was prone to high cholesterol because my Dad died at 40 from a heart attack linked to it decades ago. But I thought I could manage the high cholesterol with diet and exercise. Despite really decent effort, that failed and I was able to avoid a heart attack, but still need a very-multiple bypass surgery (open heart surgery) at age 46. Yes folks, it starts much, much earlier than you think. And if you are identified at an early age with the condition, I strongly recommend you consider medications. You may try to lower your cholesterol with diet and exercise alone, but you might wind up like me.

traditionally it’s been treated by widening the artery in by a process called angioplasty, often with placement of a stent afterwards to help support the artery. But there is also a newer procedure called atherectomy where they go in and remove the plaque from the coronary arteries.

[@brian1198]

It will, as long as you stick to it. The key to weight control is your insulin levels. Get your fasting insulin checked and once it gets down to around 10, it will become easier to lose weight. Depending on how high your insulin level is, it could take up to 6 months to get it down to that level. For example when i started my ketovore diet, my insulin level would come down about 8-10 points per month. So just be patient and stick with your diet....:)

Out of curiosity, have you done a video specifically on congestive heart failure yet? Very curious about when cholesterol isn't the problem, and the build up of fluid is what's causing the high blood pressure and arrhythmia. That was what slowly killed my father, and I'm always wondering what he was going through at the time, because he was so private and i suspect ashamed of his chronic condition. He would go from two extremes of refusing to admit he even had a disability, to admitting he had a problem but absolutely refusing to talk about it whatsoever. He evn jad two minor strokes due to his condition, and he still refused to go to the hospital and tried to get better by himself at home. There wasnt anything my mother or I could do to get him to be more cooperative, and long story short, we had to accept that we can't help someone care about their physical health when they're just so deeply depressed.

[@cinnamongirl3070]

A big point left out is sugar and carbs causing the artery damage. All carbs are broken down into glucose in order for the body to utilize it. Glucose forms spikes on red blood cells, which cause damage to the artery lining. Cholesterol is sent to the damaged site in order to repair the artery. As more carbs are consumed, more damage occurs, sending more cholesterol to the artery, narrowing the artery and eventually causing possible blockage. Cholesterol is just there trying to fix the damage caused by carbs. Blaming cholesterol is like blaming a firefighter at the scene of a fire. They are only there to try to help.

[@Total_Body_Fitness_USA]

Great video! I've been in healthcare some 30 years and people ask me all the time what should they eat and how to exercise. Well, I tell them to do something they can stick with long term because if you are too strict with your diet or your workouts consist of dropping out on the floor in complete exhaustion 5-6 days per week, that won't work. Also, just know this. The body can adapt to just about anything you throw at it. So, do things you enjoy and eat foods you like, BUT in moderation with the bad foods. Why? Because, too much bad food on a daily basis can eventually lead to high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., and then all of a sudden the cholesterol in your blood becomes the problem. Remember this, cholesterol is NOT the problem UNLESS you have inflammation and the cholesterol becomes oxidized. That simple! IF you have NO inflammation, NO underlying health issues like high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., then your high cholesterol, LDL, etc., will do NO harm! Why? Because there are NO lesions to repair! So, ask your doc to check some inflammatory markers like HS-CRP, Sedimentation Rate, Lp-PLA2, and others like Homocysteine along with A1c and of course a basic CBC, CMP, and full cholesterol panel that measures LDL particle number, and even size along with Lp(a). As a bonus you can throw in OxLDL and MPO because if you have HIGH HDL which is supposedly the good cholesterol carrier, it can actually work against you IF you have elevated MPO due to inflammation and oxidation. Now all of a sudden you have both LDL and HDL that becomes atherogenic, especially in the presence of elevated triglycerides. IF you don't want to take the time out and spend ALL that money on testing, then look at your triglycerides and HDL. If your HDL is over 50 if you are a male and over 60 for females, AND your triglycerides are very close to what your HDL is, then YOU are good my friends in MOST cases! Ideally you want a 1:1 ratio of triglycerides and HDL. Wow, if you can get that, don't worry about your cholesterol or LDL at ALL regardless of the numbers! Why? Because if you have inflammation and oxidation, you will see triglycerides increase, especially if your blood sugars start to get out of control. Forgot to mention one thing. People THINK that exercise is good. Well, it is when done properly in moderation. Too much exercise can cause excessive inflammation and even LESIONS within the endothelium which in turn can cause your cholesterol to become a problem. Yes, too much exercise CAN BE atherogenic, so to speak! Now, there are some things you can do to offset this by increasing nitric oxide, and a few other things, but that's another story! Okay, more to this, but this comment is getting long. Hope it helps someone!

This has just reminded me my doctor forgot to do my follow up cholesterol levels test, I had an elevated LDL last year. I was eating so much ice cream, and bad foods because my ex was incredibly good at supporting negative lifestyle changes, and it took me the better part of a year to stop that. I'm still quite overweight, or in American im a little overweight, but actively trying to get my cardio up, and I've cut out most excess sugars now which has definitely shown in my weight loss.

There is newer research that suggests that LDL isn't all bad and that the more important marker to monitor is your triglyceride/HDL ratio, which should be less than 1.

I got the worst LDL genetics from my dad's side of the family. Started meditation at age 16 with an LDL of around 240.

Thank you. I’ve always had low cholesterol, but the first thing cardiologists want to do is put me on statins. I started using them for almost a week and everything hurt so much that I didn’t want to get out of bed or off the couch. Before statins, my ldl was 50-52 and when I searched for the dangers of ldl below 50, they were significant such as a 176% increase in hemo? Strokes and a 56% increase in diabetes. Research now says cholesterol doesn’t cause calcification in arteries. It also says old, overweight women with arthritis have the most side effects from statins. I’ve also read if you take statins religiously for 5 years, you’ll live an additional 4 days. I’d really rather live 5 years feeling healthy and well than 5 years 4 days in misery with everything hurting.

@kathygann Thanks for your comment! Most people and doctors don't want to accept or tell us about side effects of such drugs, they just want to push pills at us. I agree with what you are saying...

[@vee4410]

Low ldl is not good, cholesterol does not cause atherosclerosis, sugar does.

I required open heart surgery 2 years ago to replace my aortic valve - it had a 5mm hole in it due to endocarditis. I don’t know how or when or why I got endocarditis. But, 3 years before my OHS I went on a low carb diet - no sugars, no refined carbs, no alcohol, just protein and greens. I lost 150lbs before my heart “went bad”. My Cholesterol is: Total Cholesterol=186, Triglycerides=46, HDL=62, LDL=115, VLDL=9, and my blood glucose is typically below 100 all day long. When the cardiologists performed a heart catheterization on me to prep me in advance for the OHS they found my “Widowmaker Artery” clogged at only 20%. They performed no intervention on it. I truly believe I reversed heart disease by eating so strict. I eat no trans fats. I don’t eat a typical Keto diet as I do not eat high fat. My only form of exercise is waking 10-15 minutes daily. That’s it. And I lost 150lbs in doing so. Cut out the pop, candy, bread, rice, potatoes (sweet potato is okay), pasta, sugars, honey, corn, wheat, and other grains.

I see so many videos saying statins are bad. My dr started me on one 3 years ago. I have always excercised regularly. Run 2-3 miles a few times a week and try to eat "good" (i said good, not perfect). On the statin, my cholesterol is 147. HDL is 53. (I dont know what my LDL is. Is that the same as LDLC?). BP at last physical was 126/76. Because i am now over 50 my dr suggested a heart calcium screening. I just got those resluts back last week and it was 0. I'm wondering if i should just stop taking these statins.

Moderation is key. Too much or too little of exercise can be detrimental to one's health. Obviously, diet, genetics, stress, and other factors have direct or indirect effect on our health. By the way, laughter is good medicine 😊

Hey Doctor, I've been hearing from some doctors who support the carnivore diet that triglycerides are a more important health indicator than cholesterol. They also claim that the negative reputation of cholesterol is based on flawed research and that the cholesterol we eat has little impact on our blood cholesterol levels. I don't have a medical background, so I'd like your professional opinion on this. Thanks!

[@christopher-bj8de]

Yes mate follow the carnivore docs not these sell outs!

My mom had 2 heart attacks, the first time she had 99% blockage, so they put a stent. The second time they also put a stent and she survived another 15 years but developed diabetes towards the end. She died when she was 68 from heart failure. I miss her terribly. 😢

Regularly checking your cholesterol levels and blood pressure is always a good idea, not only for prevention of atherosclerosis

When you mentioned smoking a cigarette was always pictured but what about smoking marijuana? Nowadays marijuana is legal in a lot of states so smoking weed has increased, is this also grouped into your detrimental/bad "stop smoking" category? Many smoke marijuana for pain management or other medical benefits that occur when used. It would be helpful if in your videos you would make the distinction of what kind of smoking you are referring to.

[@am529]

Marijuana can strain the cardiovascular system too. There are multiple papers published on this.

Wow, he is lucky. The window maker is the worst one to have. My dad was 46 and died of the widow maker in his sleep. Strange though. He never had high cholesterol, ldl wasn't high, never had high blood pressure, was never over weight, didn't smoke and the only time I seen him drink was around Christmas and Thanksgiving. I just turned 40 in September, I know any minute might be my last
