There is an interesting predictor of a heart attack that you can look for right now. Go to the mirror and look for a crease on your ear lobe, starting where the hole is and coming out 45 degrees. Coronary artery disease or cardiovascular disease causes you to lose blood flow to the heart muscle. A chronic lack of blood flow to the heart causes the loss of circulation in the peripheral parts of the body first, like the ear lobes. Without this blood supply to the ear lobes, you can develop this crease. This crease shows up in about 71% of people with heart disease. However, it has also been found to appear in other health conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure. People who smoke may also notice this crease, but it’s most commonly seen in people with heart problems. It’s important to act now to support a healthy heart: 1. Get on the Healthy Keto® diet and do intermittent fasting 2. Exercise regularly 3. Take tocotrienols 4. Consume omega-3 fatty acids (cod live oil) 5. Take vitamin K2 with vitamin D3 Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 58, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

for predicting heart attacks, okay? And it's just looking at your earlobe. Yeah, a little crease in the bottom of your earlobe, starting from where the hole is, coming out 45 degrees, as you see in this image right here. Go to the mirror right now, take a look to see if you have this, pause the video, come back. I'm gonna tell you exactly what this is all about, and what to do if you have it, or at your back. Okay, what is going on with this earlobe? And what do you mean a crease on the ear? What happens when you have coronary artery disease, or another name for that is cardiovascular disease, is you lose blood flow, usually through an artery, to the heart muscle. And this affects your entire body circulation. You start losing collateral circulation. Where's collateral circulation? Well, if your heart becomes obstructed in some way, you get collateral or extra circulation, or extra arteries that start to branch out

and serve as a plan B blood supply to the heart muscle. Those are collateral arteries. So what happens when you get this chronic lack of blood flow to your heart, okay? You start losing circulation in the peripheral part of your body first, and the earlobe is part of the periphery. And without this blood supply to the tiny capillaries in your earlobes, you start losing elastin, connective tissue, cartilage, and it starts to wrinkle up. And this little crease shows up in about 71% of everyone with coronary artery disease. But it's also found in other conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, it's found in smokers, but it's most commonly found with people with heart problems. Now, since heart attacks are the number one cause of death, you should know this indicator, not just for yourself, but for other people too. Because if you see this, you can let the person know, they need to go get it checked out

and they need to do something ASAP. Now, why the urgency? Well, the first symptom of a heart attack, over 50% of the time is death. So there is no symptoms or warning signs. You just drop dead. So you wanna pay attention, and you wanna use this clue as a prediction of what could happen. And also, you should realize that if this is not just happening in your earlobe, it's happening throughout the entire body. The arteries can become thicker. You can have a lot of oxidative stress and a loss of a lot of the collateral circulation in your body. So very simply, there's four things you need to do, okay? Immediately, number one, you need to go on the healthy version of the ketogenic diet within a minute fasting, okay? There's just no options. You need to start that. It's gonna help you tremendously. Number two, you wanna start a regular routine exercise program, okay? That's gonna flood the body with a lot more oxygen, including the heart, and you wanna be consistent, and you pretty much wanna keep this in

for the rest of your life. The next thing I would recommend is something that's very, very important for the inside of your arteries and the heart muscle. And it's a type of vitamin A called Tokatrenals. Tokatrenals is like 50 times stronger than to cough rolls, okay? So when you buy Tokatrenals, you don't wanna get Tokatrenals mixed with to cough rolls. You wanna get just a pure Tokatrenal mix or Tokatrenal complex, okay? That is gonna drive oxygen to the heart muscle itself, and it's also going to protect the inside of the vascular system. It's one of the most potent antioxidants that you can get, and it's especially good for the heart. It's also good for the liver as well. It can actually slow down the progression of a fatty liver. All right, the next thing is to start to increase the omega-3 fatty acids. And the best omega-3 is the caliber oil. It's better than fish oils, because not only does caliber oil have the omega-3 fatty acids,

but it also has vitamin A and vitamin D, which are also important in many different things, including heart health. And the last thing I'm gonna recommend is to make sure you take something called vitamin K2. That keeps the calcium from building up in the arteries, and you wanna take vitamin K2 with vitamin D3. So I just wanted to create this quick video to give you something really simple to use as a predictor. Now, if you have not seen my recent video that I just released on the worst food for the cardiovascular system, and by the way, it's not sugar, okay? There's something else.
