Is Heart Disease Genetic? | The Nutritarian Diet | Dr. Joel Fuhrman

Dr. Joel Fuhrman assures you that blaming aging and genetics for heart attacks, strokes, most cancers, and dementia is simply wrong. You would rather want to check on people who came before you, particularly your biological mother. What was their diet like growing up? How about as an adult? 🌱

Here's more from Dr. Fuhrman:
As the prevalence of CVD escalates, medical costs are rising rapidly. The American Heart Association has projected that by 2030, 40.5 percent of the US population will have some form of cardiovascular disease, and the direct medical costs attributed to cardiovascular diseases will triple compared to 2010 costs.

Risk factors for heart disease are commonplace for U.S. adults:32.6 percent have hypertension, 13.1 percent have total cholesterol above 240 mg/dl, 9.3 percent of U.S. adults have diabetes, and 68.5 percent of U.S. adults are overweight or obese. As a result, it has become considered normal in our society to have atherosclerosis, and to die from cardiovascular disease. If you eat the standard western diet that most people eat in the modern world, you will surely develop heart disease and may die from it.
