DrB here! Most think the number one reason they have a heart challenges is because their vessels are plugged! Do you know that older people who have heart blockages have a series of new blood vessels that have grown around the congested area? The process is called an anastomosis – it is network of new blood vessels developing around the congested blockage. When a young person has an inflamed blood vessel and a heart attack – they will die before their older counter parts. I have read all types of articles about blocked vessels and heart attacks. I know, and I mentioned this in a prior blog, people with normal cholesterol can die from a heart attack. I have discovered from reading and listening people can have a heart issue when they have a state of inflammation from stress. Stress creates inflammation – constant exposure to stress can cause inflammation especially in younger people who die almost immediately from a heart attack, which can be a spasm of the blood vessels. I just had an acquaintance pass away who was young, but he had a passionate addiction to food and beverages especially specialty drinks with lots of sugar. He did not watch what he ate and literally up and died, just like that he was in his lower forties.I can tell you aspirin does not stop you from having a challenge. Aspirin does not get to the cause of heart challenges. Aspirin tricks the body by altering normal fat metabolism. I would suggest you would want to have an EFA test to determine or assess your EPA fat levels. EPA is the long chain fat that allows the blood vessels subtle and pliable. The EFA test is by the way one of the ways to forecast heart health. DB
