how to stop a heart attack what would

you do well the first thing i’m going to

say

is check with your doctor before

implementing what i’m going to tell you

this is not meant to replace your

medical care or your medication okay so

the first thing you’re going to do is

call 9-1-1 of course if you have some

aspirin go ahead and take it

between 75 and 100 milligrams would help

if you’ve been prescribed nitroglycerin

you can take some of that that’s a

vasodilator it can actually help pull

someone out of an angina attack so

what’s happening when you’re getting a

heart attack well you’re getting a cramp

of your heart okay

because the main artery to the heart

it’s called the coronary artery

is either constricted

it’s going into a spasm by itself for

some reason

and then the muscle of the heart cramps

because it doesn’t have enough oxygen

okay and that’s what you feel when you

have chest pain so basically it’s like a

muscle cramp there are several things

that can actually help that situation

when someone takes nitroglycerin for

example which by the way you may have

heard of nitroglycerin being very

explosive right well the difference

between that

and the drug nitroglycerin is the drug

is

much less concentrated okay but they’re

basically the same molecule and

nitroglycerin increases something called

nitric oxide which is a

vasodilator so vasodilation increases

oxygen the main remedy i want to talk

about

is vitamin e okay in relationship to

what it can do to a heart cramp

if someone is deficient in vitamin e

what happens is they get

muscle damage

not just to the skeletal muscle but also

the cardiac muscle itself so you

actually get a breakdown of muscle

tissue when you have a vitamin e

deficiency so that’s pretty wild that a

deficiency of a vitamin will cause that

much damage but it can cause extensive

degeneration

to your muscles now also with your

deficient vitamin e there’ll be a

delayed repair action after you exercise

for those people that exercise on a

regular basis

they should not be doing the regular

amount of vitamin e they should be doing

extra because the more that you exercise

the more that you use your muscles

the greater the demand for vitamin e

vitamin e is a fat soluble antioxidant

and it works very powerfully on your

muscles

on your cell membranes protecting them

against oxidative stress

free radical damage

and it also works on the inside of that

artery the coronary artery to protect it

from

damage

inflammation and you can imagine when

you exercise you’re generating a

tremendous amount of oxidation and free

radicals well vitamin e can actually

counter that and increase the repair

of your muscles after exercise if you’re

deficient in vitamin e you’re going to

feel weakness within your muscles

they’re always going to be sore achy and

they’re not going to be as strong so

vitamin e has been shown to effectively

repair stroke related vascular damage

and it’s a very potent fat soluble

antioxidant

now

if you

do a deep dive into the research and

relationship between vitamin e

and cardiovascular accidents you’re

going to find mixed reviews but if you

actually read those studies you’re going

to find there’s a big difference between

the type of vitamin e that they use okay

the type of vitamin e that they use when

you see negative outcomes like vitamin e

causes more heart attacks

cancer

etc they’re using synthetic vitamin e

okay they’re not using a food

concentrate they’re not using the

natural version of the vitamin e complex

now the type of vitamin i’m going to

recommend that you you keep around the

house would be tocatrinos okay now what

is tocotrienols well it’s a little

different than tocopherols they recently

discovered tokatrinos as part of the

vitamin e complex

maybe you’ve heard of tocopherols alpha

beta delta gamma you also have alpha

beta delta gamma to katrina’s okay and

you have other things in the vitamin e

complex but the tocotrienols are much

more potent than the dicothrals they’re

like 50 times stronger

so they can really

help you and also help the heart

especially when the heart needs more

oxygen so the demand for oxygen goes

down when you have enough vitamin e but

a good mix of tocotrienols would be

something i would recommend as your

vitamin e

number two

increasing

nitric oxide how do you do that

very simply you don’t need anything for

this all you need to do

is slow your breath down okay and

breathe through your nose like a nice

slow inhalation

and exhalation okay back and forth

through your nose because think about it

when you’re having a heart attack you’re

gonna go into what’s called a panic

attack right you’re gonna breathe

excessively and you might hyperventilate

and guess what that’s gonna do to your

heart it’s actually gonna lower the

oxygen to your heart

you start building up too much co2 i

mean think about what happens when

someone’s in a panic attack i mean

they’re hyper ventilating quick story i

was at a restaurant with one of my old

patients and we were having lunch and

chatting

as she was consuming this soup i noticed

like she was like

you know doing this

and i’m like oh my goodness you’re

choking right now in the food and and

i’m thinking okay how do i do the

heimlich maneuver and i’m just

you know running through what i have to

do really quickly so i had her stand up

and i did the heimlich maneuver from

behind and

that didn’t work she’s like choking her

eyeballs are popping out her face is

turning red

and what was really bizarre is everyone

sitting around the restaurant are just

standing there um

just looking at me they’re not saying

anything they’re like not calling 911 or

anything

so what i did is i just said

relax

just relax your throat

just don’t panic

and all of a sudden that apparently

worked right it kind of brought her out

of that stress mode

because the stress creates a

vasoconstriction

the stress freezes up the nervous system

it shuts down oxygen

it can really create a situation so

anytime someone’s under a panic attack

or even a heart attack they should

slow down their breathing and and

breathe at a even pace of inhalation and

exhalation through the nose okay

that will greatly help um especially the

coronary artery it’s going to open it up

it’s going to relax the arteries i will

put a video down below for more data on

why that works

number three if you have some garlic cod

liver oil

or nato kinase all three of these are

great natural blood thinning compounds

okay they’ll thin the blood

they help reduce clots now just as a

side effect and i should probably do a

video on on strokes

but if you get a stroke the first thing

you need to do definitely is called

9-1-1 because there’s a certain

medication that you can take

to if you get it in time

to help prevent the damage that’s

occurring in the brain now ultimately

you want to prevent a heart attack

if you haven’t seen my video on the

relationship between the benefits of

keto on the cardiovascular system and

intermittent fasting you should

definitely watch that right now

it’s right here

you
