    Headed for A Heart Attack in Five Years?

    Headed for A Heart Attack in Five Years?

    It might surprise you to learn that nearly 85 percent of coronary bypass surgeries are done unnecessarily. But at nearly $60,000 per surgery it’s certainly easy to see why. Since almost 70 percent of the U.S. population has some sort of heart disease—related treatments, surgeries, and drugs line the pockets of mainstream medicine and big pharma. It ultimately puts your health at risk and this infuriates me.

    Fatal Heart Attacks…Caused by Your Medication?

    Fatal Heart Attacks…Caused by Your Medication?

    My old college roommate, R.G. looked a mess when he came to me. A month after his heart attack he was in my clinic desperate for help.

    “If this is what it feels like to survive a heart attack I’d rather be dead!”

    His doctor had him on a laundry list of drugs, including statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs), beta-blockers to “protect” his heart and nitrates to keep his blood vessels open.

    Doctors often prescribe nitrates at the first sign of chest pain. But this common medication for chest pain actually increases your risk of having a fatal heart attack…

    Marathon Kills 3 More in 16 Minutes…

    Marathon Kills 3 More in 16 Minutes…

    This weekend it happened again.

    In 16 minutes 3 people lost their lives at the Detroit marathon.

    Thirty-six-year-old Daniel Langdon collapsed at about 9:02 am on Sunday between the 11 and 12-mile markers and 65-year-old Rick Brown collapsed at 9:17 am, near where Langdon went down. One minute later, 26-year-old Jon Fenlon collapsed just after finishing the 13.1-mile half-marathon.

    When I was watching the news this morning I heard the announcer say sudden death “was rare” during marathon events. I suppose that depends on how you define “rare.”…

    Two Overlooked Solutions Could Save Your Life

    Two Overlooked Solutions Could Save Your Life

    Whoever said, “Ignorance is bliss” never saw anyone die of a heart attack.

    So I want to share with you a piece of wisdom that most people and doctors don’t know: The key to a healthy heart is to promote normal levels of inflammation and oxidation, not cholesterol.

    Low cholesterol doesn’t necessarily mean healthy veins and cardiovascular system.

    Now the buzz is about to spread over the entire country.

    Popular Remedy Causes Internal Bleeds

    Is your doctor telling you to take an aspirin for your heart?

    If so, you may be putting your life at risk.

    Aspirin is fine for the occasional headache, or to take while you are having a heart attack, but NOT as a daily preventive medication.

    Women Have “Different” Heart Attacks

    If you or someone you love was having a heart attack, would you be able to recognize the symptoms?

    You may be surprised to learn there’s more to a heart attack than chest pain. Especially in women. In fact, many women never realize they’re having a heart attack – until it’s too late.

    The Vitamin E You’ve Never Heard Of…

    Are you taking the right vitamin E for your heart?

    Most people don’t know this, but there are eight forms of vitamin E: four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. While they’re all antioxidants, the differences between them could easily fill a book.

    Use Vitamin C to Reverse Disease

    Today, most doctors insist that cholesterol is the cause of heart disease as they dole out dangerous cholesterol-lowering drugs.

    But few ever realize that vitamin C deficiency plays a major role in heart attack and stroke. And, vitamin C therapy can reverse years of accumulated damage to help you:

    Stop This Dangerous Form of Heart Disease

    Congestive heart failure is a deadly form of heart disease.

    It means your heart can’t pump enough blood for your body’s needs. This leads to fluid congestion that can cause your vital organs like your lungs, brain and kidneys to shut down.

    When a ‘Tub of Lard’ is a Good Thing

    Remember the days when everything was cooked with good, old-fashioned butter or lard?

    My grandmother cooked with lard her whole life. Most people did… until the government told everybody that animal fat caused heart disease. Then manufacturers introduced substitutes such as shortening and margarine.
