Scared of having a heart attack? Here's what to do about it

[@chrisminifie219]

A cardiologist with his heart in the right place

[@lindasharp9165]

I had a "silent heart attack" when I was 61 and never fully realized it until my primary care doc sent me to a cardiologist who ran tests and determined there was some damage to the heart. I can remember when it happened because I felt terrible and was curled up in a ball in bed for 3 days. It never occurred to me that it was an MI.

[@smallfootprint2961]

Be careful abt taking potassium and even magnesium in pill form. Eat a completely plant based diet with a lot of dark leafy greens. Makes a big difference... I mean to say that what's important with potassium is to balance it with sodium. Check it out, and if you dont have an imbalance, best to get what you get from your eating whole foods.

[@shrekpower]

Little summary : - Two types of Heart Attacks, you either die instantly with no chance or get to the hospital ASAP to get treated. - Too much research is focusing on "treating" heart attacks vs prevention. Factors : - Age (the older the worst), older people tend to understand it could happen anytime soon and accept it. - Genetics - Luck : you can do everything right to avoid a heart attack through your life but you could have one anyway - Your Lifestyle such as : 1. Avoid Smoking 2. Avoid Drugs (especially cokaine) 3. Be careful about your overall diet (raw products/fresh veggies/local food = best) less processed food. Fat Waist > hips is bad. 4. Avoid carbonated drinks... What's wrong about water? 5. Avoid Alcohol (no excess) 6. Do exercise (moderate exercise reduce inflammation levels) 7. SLEEP, have enough, do not compromise it. Try to recognize if you have sleep apnea and prevent it's very bad effects on your body and treat it. 8. Stress : Health > Money, relax, 9. Anger/Depression 10. Check your cholesterol on a regular basis

If you’ve stopped doing drugs, then they shouldn’t cause heart disease. If you’re considering continuing taking drugs, you should consider that they can make you more resistant to anesthesia. So for example you need a surgery, the anesthesiologist may need to keep giving you more and more amounts of anesthesia to keep you to under. This can be dangerous. My opinion is you should worry about this more. But in any case, it’s only a concern if you continue, not if you quit.

To buy time : Evidently take very deep breath and cough really deeply [ as if clearing the chest] the cough compresses on the heart and acts like a DIY massage, keep doing this until help arrives. This assumes you can dial 999 and gasp a location !! Also people who are really stresses can take a 6 week course on the NHS to learn Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and learn how to manage stress, worry, depression really effectively. I bet there is a U-Tube video about this too. Last comment-just to say most important to cut out refined sugar - but organic honey is a good thing!!

I found this out be requesting a copy of his hospital file and it showed what he was given. I have had to live with that for 2 years. I did not sleep; I did not eat and I was deeply depressed. Now 2 years later I am having heart issues. I hope it is not too late for me to garner a few more years. I take no Rx medications... yet... but I do take supplements... zinc, Magnesium, K2 D3, Vit D3, & Vit C. I don't smoke, I don't drink soda and seldom eat junk food.

In order to follow a heart healthy lifestyle you have to live like an old person. Everything in super moderation, you have to sleep regularly, you can't drink you can't smoke, you can't eat burgers and drink coca-cola, you have to be calm and content, you can't play a good game of basketball (it's not a moderate exercise), you can maybe find a few grandmas from your neighborhood to form a brisk walk gang, that's uninflammatory. And if you are unlucky you can still die in your sleep. I think that heart science needs more researches and discoveries that could lead to a more stable life. It's rational to expect a heart attack at the age of 59 if you smoked, drank and ate a lot of poison in your life, but to expect a relative possibility that you may die at 31 because you are slightly obese is unacceptable. C'mon guys it's not a space travel people expect/deserve better.

On my fathers side I don't recall heart attacks, everyone dies of cancer. On both sides everyone are or were heavy smokers. Yet my grandmother smoked like 3 packs a day most of her life and she lived to be 78 she started smoking at 13 years old.. I guess it's just luck of the draw. Any advise? Trust my physicians? Or get a second opinion? Again thanks for caring more about the people and less about lining your pockets with money ( seems like you're a Genuinely very nice person ) and care about people's well being.

InkedinRI you nailed it on the head. Grand mother on my father's side smoked and lived to be 90. My grand mother on my moms side smoked worked my ass off and died at 48 years old. Father side Irish moms side Italian/French.

+Samurai Storm I want to say one thing which I believe everybody is born with different organs. some people have strong organs or some have weak. we all know how our body reacts. A human should understand nature of his or her body and then take a diet and do activities according to this. If some people die at young age due to smoking but some don't die even at 90 due to smoking that doesn't mean that smoking doesn't affect your health. in short I just want to say stay away from smoking, bad nutrition.

[@herpensdope1982]

InkedinRI how relatable are you! I have an extreme heart phobia. My mom had died of hypertrophy cardiomyopathy at 27. She had sudden death. My aunt, her sister died at 41 suddenly as well. I was 2 years old when my mom died but I habe this extreme phobia and I am a nurse. It has become a blessing and a curse. I almost wish I was ignorant to it all. I have major severe panic attacks. I am currently 36 and been suffering from them since I was 16. During a panic attack I am always frightened I am going to give myself a lethal arrhythmia or a heart attack. I see a cardilogist twice a year and get schos, stress test, heart holters. I do get pvcs but have been considered benign. I was in urgent care this week getting troponin drawn etc. Everything was fine but it reassures me and calms me for awhile but I still fear the panic attacks coming back and possible heart problems. This doc is a blessing. THANK YOU for taking the time to make these videos!!!! And for you...thank you for sharing your comment. I vlog as well and I think my videos would be relatable. Sending you all positive vibes.

What are your thoughts on a whole food, plant based diet (no animal products, no oil, no sugar, no processed food) to reverse heart disease and prevent heart attacks?

[@darkchocotony3391]

More importantly, no inflammatory seed oils like canola, soybean, safflower and all the oils used in processed and junk foods.

Just a little worried about heart rate at idle its about 67, and i've seen it go to say 59, but not recently. During exercise gets up to about 110 max. Just don't want it to go so slow it stops.

I would love to have the opinion of Dr. Gupta about D-Ribose and it’s potential positive effect on the heart. Arythmia and chronic fatigue

Dear Sanjay, when you have the opportunity, would you please explain what diseases cause high CRP levels, how concerned one should be and what is the best long term method to repair this condition.

[@bonnierobinson8684]

You will save lives doing this!

[@Ladykershaw]

Thats why i have anxiety of heart attack.. because I have M.E and cant excersise at all without getting sicker and more inflammation, i need to use wheelchair to limit overusing energy. Because of this its hard to eat right because I have to have very little kcal which is making it hard to live a ok life without limiting too much Foods.. i eat lowfodmap so many healthy things i Cant eat. My M.E makes sleep a problem same with the POTs part(im on betablockers). My cm around my stomach is like 20 cm too much From what is recommended. But doctors etc only looks wierd at me when I say im scared of heart attack bc "oh ur young(35) , they call me slim and nobody thinks im overweight but I am!.. And i stress about the fact that I cant exercise anything and everyone is saying thats the most important thing for good health. 😭 I do not smoke or drink though or drink sodas 😅 maybe that will save me.

[@sunilayya8948]

Dear Dr Gupta, Do you recommend taking a low dose of aspirin to help reduce chances of a heart attack? Would greatly appreciate your opinion .
