As a cardiologist, I've treated young people who had heart attacks after using cocaine at parties. These drugs can be dangerous for your heart. Patients often ask me about cannabis (marijuana or weed). 📄 We just published a paper showing that cannabis use is associated with an increased risk...

Loose Stools and Vomiting can Uncommonly be the Symptoms of a HEART ATTACK The classical symptom of heart attack (myocardial infarction) is chest pain. However, chest pain may be absent in 8-33% cases of heart attacks. Heart attack, in a minority, may present with symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and loose stools, mimicking diseases such as gastroenteritis or acid peptic disease. These symptoms are more common in inferior myocardial infarction, caused by blockage of right coronary artery. In patients presenting without chest pain, a diagnosis of heart attack is often missed or delayed. However, there should be strong suspicion of heart attack in people with risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, smoker, male gender, etc. When in doubt, an ECG and blood tests can confirm a diagnosis of heart attack. Timely diagnosis and treatment of heart attack can save lives. In case of actor Vikas Sethi, as per his doctors, he most likely suffered cardiac arrest during sleep (which was most likely caused by a heart attack). Heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and fans.

🚨Here's what people don't realize about marijuana and THC, says Alex Berenson: "Beyond the psychosis connection and this increased link to schizophrenia…there's increasing evidence in the last 10 years that cannabis and THC—and this is not from smoking, this apparently is from the effect of the chemical itself—can cause really severe heart damage. There is a link to myocardial infarctions, heart attacks. and that link is pretty strong now. You can find papers that show a 3x increase over a multi-year period. And these are young people, right? So they're very low baseline risk, but the risk is very real and increased. And then the other is…in states that have legalized, they see a lot of high-speed car accidents with cannabis.…This idea that when you get stoned, you just drive 10 miles an hour, and if anything, your problem is that you're not moving at all, turns out not to be true." I sat down with Berenson, author of "Tell Your Children" and "Pandemia" at Turning Point USA's #amfest2025 conference. Stay tuned for the full episode!

3 Pharmaceutical Drug Classes That Are Totally Toxic To The Heart. Critical Information From Cardiologist Dr Jack Wolfson That Could Save Your Life. Seek Root Cause Healing & Natural Modalities To Avoid Dependence & Fatal Outcomes From These Big Pharma Medications. Fluoroquinolone Antibiotics: These broad spectrum antibiotics have an attached Fluorine Atom & contain toxic fluoride. There are 7 in this class & the most common are Cipro & Levaquin. Doctors have prescribed fluoroquinolone antibiotics to millions of patients, but these drugs have proven to be linked to dangerous side effects which can cause permanent injury or sudden death. fluoroquinolones increase the occurrence of ruptures & tears in the aorta. They also lead to mitral & aortic regurgitation. In 13 studies, Fluoroquinolones showed 85% increase in the risk for heart arrhythmia & 71% increase in the risk for cardiovascular mortality. NSAIDS Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Meds: Ibuprofen, Advil, Naproxen, Aleve, Motrin, etc all increase the risk for heart attack & stroke. NSAIDs increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke, either of which can lead to death. There are a large number of studies that support this finding, with varying estimates of how much the risk is increased, depending on the drugs & the doses studied. These serious side effects can occur as early as the first weeks of using an NSAID & the risk increases the longer you are taking an NSAID. Amphetamine Stimulants Like Adderall: Amphetamines lead to heart failure due to various mechanisms, including direct toxicity to the heart muscle, increased sympathetic activity & oxidative stress. Symptoms of amphetamine-induced heart failure include shortness of breath, fatigue & swelling. These symptoms are severe, leading to significant morbidity & mortality. Acetaminophen Like Tylenol & Paracetamol: These reduce Glutathione to very unsafe levels within the body causing immune system dysregulation & heart issues. Studies show that regular doses of only 500 mg/day, equal to 1 extra strength Acetaminophen capsule was found to alter proteins in heart tissue. Since Acetaminophen also harms the liver, toxins build as the body cannot rid itself of them & can cause heart damage. 👇Fluoroquinolone Antibiotics & Heart Damage👇 👇NSAIDs & Heart Damage/Failure👇 👇Amphetamine Induced Heart Failure👇 👇Acetaminophen Causes Heart Damage👇 Speaker: Dr Jack Wolfson, Board Certified Cardiologist

🚨 SOLAR STORMS ARE TRIGGERING HEART ATTACKS — AND WOMEN ARE BEING HIT 3X HARDER A massive Harvard-linked study examined deaths across 263 U.S. cities and found that periods of stronger geomagnetic disturbance were associated with increases in cardiovascular and heart attack deaths. Then researchers found another disturbing clue. A 16-year study of 809 men showed that intense geomagnetic activity was linked to a measurable drop in heart rate variability for up to 24 hours. That matters because lower HRV can signal stress on the autonomic nervous system and is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. More recent research has also reported unusually large increases in heart attack frequency among certain groups of women during disturbed geomagnetic conditions. The pattern keeps appearing: Solar activity increases. Earth’s magnetic field becomes disturbed. The nervous system reacts. Cardiovascular events rise. So why is space weather almost never mentioned when we talk about heart health? How many people are being told their heart attack came “out of nowhere” while scientists quietly study what the Sun might actually be doing to the human body?

You may have seen the article in The Times today talking about the increased risk of cardiovascular disease after menopause - I shared it here earlier. Well this is something we have known for many years now so I wanted to share some of the science behind why this is the case. A lot of it is because the hormone oestrogen plays such an important role in protecting your cardiovascular health… ❤️ Oestrogen allows your blood vessels to relax and widen so that blood can flow through them easily. This helps to keep your blood pressure down ❤️ Oestrogen can reduce the levels of ‘bad’ cholesterol in your blood. This is a type of fat that can clog the arteries and increase the risk of heart attack and stroke ❤️ Oestrogen reduces inflammation in the lining of your blood vessels ❤️Oestrogen increases levels of nitrous oxide, which is a chemical known to relax and widen blood vessels ❤️ Oestrogen supports the conducting system of the heart The video I am sharing here is a short clip from a recent Instagram Live I recorded, but I go into much more detail on the full version which you can watch on my YouTube channel here:

Nicotine can enhance cognition, but it comes at a cost to cardiovascular health. A single 2–4 mg nicotine pouch can raise blood pressure by ~5 mmHg and increase resting heart rate by ~5–10 beats per minute. Higher doses lead to more pronounced elevations. More concerning is nicotine’s effect on arterial stiffness, which is a marker strongly associated with long-term cardiovascular disease risk. These effects are driven largely by nicotine’s activation of the sympathetic nervous system, which promotes vasoconstriction and impairs endothelial function. While the cardiovascular effects are often short-lived, repeated exposure can make them persistent in habitual users.

If you have erectile dysfunction, there’s a 15% chance of a heart attack within 7 years. Dr. Rena Malik explained it on the Shawn Ryan Show. The blood vessels to the penis are half the size of those to the heart. So problems show up there first. She calls it the “canary in the coal mine” for your overall health. Multiple large studies confirm that ED is a strong independent predictor of future heart disease. Men with ED have roughly 2–3 times higher risk of heart attack or stroke, and symptoms often appear 3–5 years before a major cardiac event. ED is frequently an early warning sign of systemic vascular disease.

Of the 11 major risk factors for Alzheimer's, how many are you actively managing? According to renowned psychiatrist and brain disorder specialist Dr. Daniel Amen, a staggering 50% of Alzheimer's cases are preventable. The key, he explains, is to understand and address the 11 major risk factors, which he summarizes with the acronym BRIGHT MINDS. In a compelling discussion, Dr. Amen outlined several of these critical factors: - B is for Blood Flow: This is the #1 brain imaging predictor. Protect it by managing blood pressure, staying active, and being mindful of substances like excessive alcohol, marijuana, nicotine, and too much caffeine. - R is for Retirement & Aging: As we age, brain health requires more intention. Notably, Dr. Amen points to new research showing that marijuana use in those under 50 is associated with a 600% increased risk of heart attack, highlighting its negative impact on our blood vessels. - I is for Inflammation: A major culprit behind dementia. Combat it by avoiding ultra-processed foods, ensuring adequate Omega-3s, and surprisingly—flossing your teeth nightly to prevent gum disease and low-grade oral infections. - H is for Head Trauma: A major cause of not only psychiatric issues but also substance abuse, as it often damages the frontal lobes and impairs impulse control. - T is for Toxins: This includes drugs, alcohol, mold, and even the products we put on our bodies. Dr. Amen shared a powerful anecdote about a patient whose brain scan deteriorated significantly after general anesthesia, underscoring that it can be toxic to the brain and increase dementia risk. The takeaway is empowering: by loving your brain and taking a proactive, preventative approach to these risk factors, you can dramatically shift your cognitive future. Your brain is your most precious asset. How will you protect it today?

FDA Quietly Confirms COVID Vaccine Linked to Heart Damage in Young Males After years of denial, the FDA has updated its warning label—admitting the COVID vaccine can cause myocarditis, particularly in young males. Key findings from their study: - Persistent abnormal cardiac MRI findings (evidence of heart injury) were common, even months after vaccination. - The study only followed patients for ~5 months—what about long-term effects? Heart muscle cells do not regenerate. - The FDA downplays it, saying the "clinical significance is unknown." But we know: heart damage is serious. The real scandal? - These risks were flagged in early trials but ignored. - Healthy 12-24-year-olds were put at risk—what about those with pre-existing conditions? - Where’s the accountability for those who silenced warnings? This isn’t just a footnote—it’s a betrayal.

"Calcium Supplements Are Dangerous...The Best Calcium Supplement To Take Is NONE." "Synthetic Vitamins Increase Your Likelihood Of Dying." Dr Josh Axe Calcium Supplements Do Not Fortify Bones. They Cause Kidney Stones, Colon Polyps, Cancer, Blood Clots, Heart Attacks & Stroke. "There Is No Evidence That Calcium Supplements Fortify Bones...But There Is A Massive Body Of Evidence That They Are Harmful." Synthetic calcium supplementation is not processed in the body the same way as it is when ingested from a food source. Multiple studies have found that there’s no benefit to taking calcium supplements for the prevention of fractures & Osteoporosis. On the other hand, there is massive research proving calcium supplements cause colon polyps, serrated growths in the large intestine that lead to cancer & calcium supplements also cause kidney stones, which are hard masses formed in the kidneys from an accumulation of calcium. Calcium supplements increase the risk of calcium buildup in the heart’s arteries. This calcification leads to cardiovascular disease resulting in blood clots, heart attacks & strokes. Dr Erin Michos, MD...associate director of preventive cardiology, "I’m very concerned about calcium supplements contributing to heart attacks & heart disease. The body can process 500 milligrams of calcium at a time from your food, from dietary natural calcium. If you take a synthetic calcium supplement, your body has to do something with the excess. Higher calcium levels in the blood trigger blood clots & that calcium also gets deposited along artery walls, which causes narrowing of blood vessels." Synthetic Calcium Supplementation And... 1⃣ Colon Polyps...calcium supplements cause 2.5 times the rate of sessile serrated colon polyps, which are pre-cancerous polyps. 2⃣ Colon Cancer...synthetic calcium supplements increase bowel lesions putting you at risk for cancer. 3⃣ Kidney Stones...calcium supplements bind with oxalic acid found in food, causing toxic levels of oxalate in the urine & form calcium oxalate kidney stones. 4⃣ Atherosclerosis...high calcium levels from synthetic supplements cause hardening of the arteries & arterial calcification. 5⃣ Blood Clots...calcium supplements produce a hypercoagulable state where blood clots more easily. This increases the risk of blood clots in the heart & brain, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT). 6⃣ Heart Attacks...calcium supplementation increases cardiovascular risk, including coronary heart disease & myocardial infarction. 7⃣ Strokes...synthetic calcium supplements significantly increase risk of acute myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke & death. For strong bones...what is essential is weight bearing exercise to build bone. Bones are 50% protein & require 1 gram of protein per 1 pound of ideal body weight in the daily diet. A 150lb person needs at least 150 grams of nutrient dense animal protein per day to rebuild bone & to prevent Osteoporosis in the 1st place. Bones require an array of unrefined minerals including Boron, Zinc & Magnesium which can be obtained by daily use of unrefined mineral salt & in whole foods. Strong bones also require Vitamin D from daily sun exposure &/or infrared light. 👇Calcium Supplements & Colon Cancer👇 👇Calcium Supplements Cause Serrated Polyps👇 👇Calcium Supplements Cause Urinary Stones👇 👇Calcium Supplements Cause CVD & Stroke👇 Speakers: Alex Clark & Dr Josh Axe

Waking Up to an Alarm in Mornings can cause a Significant Surge in Blood pressure ➡️Many people routinely use an alarm to wake up. As per a study, waking up to an alarm can result in 74% increase in Blood pressure (BP), as compared to those who wake up naturally (without an alarm). ➡️The increase in BP is greater among those who have slept for less than 7 hours (before waking up). ➡️This surge in BP can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. ➡️The risk is higher among those who have preexisting heart disease or hypertension. ➡️Alarm can awaken you all of a sudden from deep sleep, and this can result in "sleep inertia", where a person can feel groggy for up to two hours. ➡️Waking up to an alarm can also increase the stress levels. What are the safer alternatives? 1. Avoid using alarm on a regular basis, 2. Sleep adequately (7-8 hours), allowing you to naturally wake up from sleep, 3. Allow natural light to come into your room, so that melatonin (sleep hormone) production in brain can reduce (with light exposure), allowing you to wake up naturally, 4. Maintain a consistent sleep schedule (going to bed at around the same time every night), which is in sync with your circadian rhythm, 5. If you must use an alarm, use a melodic or soothing sound, which are pleasant to listen too. #sleep #alarm #bp #bloodpressure #heartattack #stroke

What are the safer alternatives? 1. Avoid using alarm on a regular basis, 2. Sleep adequately (7-8 hours), allowing you to naturally wake up from sleep, 3. Allow natural light to come into your room, so that melatonin (sleep hormone) production in brain can reduce (with light exposure), allowing you to wake up naturally, 4. Maintain a consistent sleep schedule (going to bed at around the same time every night), which is in sync with your circadian rhythm, 5. If you must use an alarm, use a melodic or soothing sound, which are pleasant to listen too. #sleep #alarm #bp #bloodpressure #heartattack #stroke

CAC Coronary Artery Calcium Scan: New Heart Disease Test Causes Cancer. Major Organizations Warn Public Against It... 42 Of Every 100K Patients Develop Cancer From Ionizing Radiation. Radiation Dosage Varies 10X From One Hospital To Another, Causing 5,600 New Cases Of Cancer. The American Heart Association, American College of Cardiology & the United States Preventive Services Task Force do not recommend the use of heart CT scans for patients with a low or high risk of heart disease because CT scans could be more harmful than beneficial due to the relatively high dose of radiation. "Tens of millions of adults would be exposed to relatively high levels of radiation through this procedure. Doctors still have not established a standard dose of radiation to be used for heart CT scans & doses for this test vary from one hospital to another, with some patients getting 10X the amount of radiation as patients in another hospital." A 2009 study showed that one heart CT scan for the 50 million Americans who would receive the average radiation dose, these scans would result in 5,600 new cancer cases. The number of new cancer cases would be even higher if individuals were screened more than once in their lifetime. Radiation from CT scans is even of concern to the FDA even when the CT scans are necessary. On October 9, 2009, the FDA announced that it was notifying healthcare professionals that 206 patients who were being tested for stroke received CT radiation doses that were 8X the expected level at one particular medical facility. While this event involved a single kind of diagnostic test at one facility, the FDA warned that “it reflects more widespread problems with CT quality assurance programs.” Each year, over 600,000 Americans die from heart disease even though heart disease can be prevented. Although heart CT scanning may be a useful tool in detecting blockages in heart arteries, there is not enough evidence to show that this test is worth the risks, especially compared to traditional risk factor assessment. For this reason, the Cancer Prevention & Treatment Fund of the National Research Center for Women & Families agrees with the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force that heart CT scans are not recommended for screening for heart disease. 👇CAC Screening Radiation 10X Cancer Risk👇 👇Ionizing Radiation Risk From CAC Test👇 👇Cancer Risk From CT Scan Radiation👇 Video: Dr David Alfrey

If you have high Lp(a), like me, here are 5 things you need to know to protect your heart: 1. Lp(a) is ~90% genetic. While it can be influenced at the margins (e.g. inflammation), most people have a genetic “floor.” I inherited mine from my father. Do you know yours? 2. Your genes may be fixed—but your jeans aren’t. Specifically, visceral fat matters. People with low waist-to-hip ratios, a proxy for less visceral fat, often show little to no added cardiovascular risk from high Lp(a). Why? Because Lp(a) interacts with the metabolic environment. 3. Medications matter. Statins can increase Lp(a), while PCSK9 inhibitors tend to decrease it. 4. Vitamin C may help reduce the atherogenicity of Lp(a) by working inside the lumen of blood vessels and inside artery walls 5. Ketogenic diets may also reduce Lp(a)-related risk—working inside the artery to lower inflammation, oxidative stress, and depletion of key cofactors caused by Lp(a). This is the Cliff Notes version. For the full deep dives—10,000+ words of nuance, mechanisms, and references—check the comments and stay curious.

There’s been a lot of buzz—and confusion—about the new Keto-CTA study, examining plaque progression in Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHRs). Much of the social media debate has centered on whether high LDL on keto is safe or dangerous, driven largely by how to interpret the supplemental table comparing this study to others on LDL and plaque progression. In this episode of the Metabolic Mind Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Matthew Budoff, a world-renowned cardiologist, cardiac CT researcher, and the study's lead investigator, to discuss the the supplemental table, what the plaque markers mean, and how this fits into the discussion of high- vs -low-risk plaque progression. In this episode, we cover: ✅ What PAV (Percent Atheroma Volume) is, what it actually measures, and why it matters ✅ Why a 50% increase in plaque may sound scary, but can be deceiving ✅ The difference between “treatment-naive” and “treated” participants ✅ What the Miami Heart Study comparison reveals about keto, LDL, and plaque ✅ Why LDL alone may not tell the whole story about heart disease risk ✅ How some high-risk individuals may still benefit from statins and other therapies This study doesn’t answer whether keto causes heart disease or not. Instead, it shows that high LDL on a ketogenic diet is not a reliable predictor of plaque progression across all individuals. What is predictive? The presence of existing plaque. 💡 Key takeaway: Relying on surrogate markers of heart disease, like LDL and ApoB, is not the best way to assess heart disease risk in all populations. If you're concerned about how elevated LDL may be affecting your heart health, the best next step is to speak with your doctor about cardiac imaging to directly assess plaque and gain a clearer picture of your individual risk.

If Patients Were Properly Informed Of The Dangers Of PPI Proton Pump Inhibitors, No One In Their Right Mind Would Ever Take These Drugs. Dr Nathan Bryan, PhD These Dangerous Drugs Should Carry A Black Box Warning. All PPI Proton Pump Inhibitors like Nexium, Prilosec & Prevacid are only approved for short term 14 day use. There is no long term safety data on any proton pump inhibitor. Over 200+ Million Prescriptions Are Written For These Drugs Every Year. The Consequences Of Taking PPI Proton Pump Inhibitors Long Term Are Deadly. People who have been on Antacids for 3-5 years have a 40% increase for heart attack & stroke. That's not increased risk, that's actual events. People who have been on PPI Proton Pump Inhibitors for 4 years have a 40% increase in Dementia & Rapid Onset Alzheimer's. These are very dangerous drugs & should not be used.
