Inflammation And The Heart

The Hidden Connection Between Inflammation and Your Heart Did you know that half of all heart attacks happen to people with normal cholesterol and blood pressure? The missing link is often chronic inflammation. In today’s video, we explore how this "slow burn" inside your body can lead to heart disease—the leading cause of death in the United States—and what you can do to stop it. In this video, we cover: • The Silent Risk: Why standard heart markers don't always tell the whole story. • The hsCRP Test: How to measure your inflammation levels and what the results mean for your heart health. • The Plaque Trap: A deep dive into how inflammation makes artery walls "sticky" and triggers plaque buildup. • Heart Rhythm: How chronic inflammation can disrupt your heart's electrical signaling. • 3 Actionable Biohacks: Practical strategies for nutrition, strategic movement (Zone 2 cardio), and stress management to "cool the coals" of inflammation.
