Posted November 3, 2023
Each year, around 450,000 Americans die from a heart attack.
In fact, heart attacks are often called “the silent killer” because they can seemingly strike out of the blue.
But what if there was a way to know ahead of time that a heart attack was looming? A sort of heart attack early warning system?
It would be a GAME CHANGER.
Well now researchers say they’ve uncovered a way we could do precisely that.
Imagine a world where we have the power to predict an approaching hidden health problem HOURS before it hits so we can STOP it before it strikes.
A study published in the journal The Lancet Digital Health may have handed us a “Crystal Ball Method” when it comes to heart attacks.
The researchers discovered that at least 50 percent of people who’ve suffered a heart attack had a few specific symptoms in the 24 hours before the attack.
- For women, the MOST common symptom is shortness of breath.
- For men, the MOST common symptoms are chest pain and pressure.
Other frequent signs included palpitations, seizure-like activity, and flu-like symptoms.
Knowing what to look for and IMMEDIATELY acting could literally save your life.
Every minute counts. If you experience these or any other concerning symptoms, seek medical care right away.
And another thing…
