Heart disease is the leading cause of death globally. Today we’re going to talk about a common cause of heart attacks you may have never considered before.
The heart is constantly working. Death from a heart attack is caused by the heart muscle malfunctioning due to a lack of oxygen. Any muscle, including the heart, needs a lot of oxygen to work.
Too much of a certain enzyme called lactate causes lactic acid, which causes your pH to be more acidic, and you can run out of air quickly.
Lactate ultimately comes from burning glucose (sugar) as fuel. Elevated glucose from a high-sugar or high-carb diet is bad for your triglycerides, cholesterol, and your overall heart health.
Adrenaline, caused by stress, also raises your glucose leading to lactic acid and a lack of oxygen, affecting the heart.
Chronic stress can also increase LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Adrenaline and cortisol can have this effect even in people with low blood sugar levels.
Other potential causes of increased lactic acid and risk for heart attacks:
• Smoking and vaping
• Tylenol poisoning
• Inflammation
• Diabetes
• Fructose
• Cyanide poisoning
• Alcohol
• Certain medications
• Vitamin B1 deficiency
• Vitamin B12 deficiency
How to lower adrenaline and support the heart:
1. Reduce stress triggers
2. Try intermittent high-intensity exercise with a lot of rest in-between and take long walks in nature
3. Avoid sugar (get on the ketogenic diet)
4. Take vitamin B1
5. Take vitamin E (tocotrienols)

My cousin had brain surgery in 1988 and ended up suffering from grand Mal epilepsy. He was on epilim medication for 30 years and at the age of 53, he dropped dead at home while watching television. The medication notes mentioned heart damage and we’re convinced that it may have been the cause. We have no proof though so we’ll just have to put it down to one of those things.
I take this medication also. The side effects that maybe unknown to me are worrying some
@Wanda Cass have you tried the high fat diet for epilepsy? It’s supposed to really help epilepsy…also B1
epilim in France is called depakine and there was a health scandal a few years ago concerning malformation of babies because the doctor prescribing it did not tell epileptic mother to stop the use during pregnancy. That was very rare, only 40% of the pregnancies, that was not enough to stop the cash rain.
No autopsy? Would have shown heart damage if existent.
@Ann Rhodes Yes it actually went to two autopsies as the first one was inconclusive. It found three problems with the heart, though I don’t have the scientific names to hand. What I’m saying is that we’re suspicious that the damage was done to the heart as a consequence of 33 years of Epilim medication
This reminds me of my Biochemistry class, but you put realistic situations together and with visuals, I would have Aced all my classes if you were my instructor. Thank you Doctor, this answers a lot of my mom’s condition. Thank you for all your hard work!
She should eat heart. I got my first heart today.
I eat liver allso. Every day. And no from today, i eat heart.
That’s for sure. In my day it was a Professor and a chalk board.
Every little bit of information helps,very little research and testing by labs or universities on even basic food, supplements, FDA doesn’t help only pushes chemicals
@bendik kirkbakk poor comments
To sum up this video try to keep your stress levels at bay !! Thank you Dr.
Doesn’t eating sweets reduce stress and adrenaline though
No problem. Glad to share this video. Stay safe!
Im dead
@smoke screen magnesium helps
Good morning Dr Berg.Thank you so much for this topic.It’s great advice and very good to know to prevent for heart attack.Have a nice day dr Berg ❤
No problem. Happy to share this video. Have a nice day too!
Almost 11 M subscribers tells you how important he is to providing info to the world.
Thank you, for helping the common people 🙏
Sorry your comment didn’t get as many likes as you plànned on.
Absolutely!
I started folloing him when he had like 10K subs..wow
I can’t think of anyone who has helped more people. 10.6M subscribers! Amazing. One question about this. If metformin decreases oxygen availability – does berberine, since they have a similar mechanism of action? Thanks so much for your work.
yes, it does
This is probably ONE of your best videos ever Dr. Berg! We all thank you so very much for posting! ❤
Hes a great man
Thank you Dr. Berg; always working to keep us healthy! You’re a blessing from GOD for so many.🙏🏾
The hardest thing about being healthy is controlling the stress.
Do not forget the brutal mistreatment at work that many of us have suffered for years, even in different jobs, which forces us to be in a permanent “state of war” and for this reason I have suffered an acute myocardial infarction…too much stress… and now I understand the mechanism thanks to Dr. Berg.
@Patty cakeplease don’t generalize people who _suffer_ from bipolar. It is Life On Hard Mode™
Stress and overwork yes facts, shouldn’t work for someone lol that’s why I’m self employed 😅😅😅
OMG yes. It’s a wonder I’m not dead from that awful job I used to have. It was stress, stress, and more stress, all the time.
@Patty cake I don’t tip toe around little feelings either.
@catitude4 my boss don’t care about my feelings and he has this disease that makes my life hectic. Being political correct has been real hard for me working under someone with bi polar.
A physician will always say to get out of stress but never explain why! This stream goes in detail as to what the stress does!
Thank you so much! Blessings!
Dr. Berg, I just wanted to share my experience;
I recently took my dog to the vet and she is going to be 11 years old. Veterinarian said that my dog was in very good health and asked me what I do for my dog. I said I walk my dog everyday at least 3.2 miles to 5.2 miles
There are some nice walking trails near my house. The best decision I made was to retire early at 62 in 2020. Not only was this a good decision for my dog but for myself also. Since I had more time I began to exercise. Not only did my dog lose weight but I went from 197 lb to 167 lb. Probably the most important thing is that I have less stress in my life. I sleep better, eat better and feel better. I recently seen my cardiologists and he put me on a echocardiogram and did the stress test. Basically he told me to just keep on doing what I am doing. I took that is a clean bill of health.
I also wanted to “Thank You” for all of the wonderful information that I’ve received by listening to you!
fantastic
Working is walking, for many of us, we are active and accomplish.
@Edward Alamo One problem is that a lot of people are sitting still at a desk at work getting stressed. It’s far less healthy than a walk in the fresh air and sunlight. I guess job satisfaction would be healthy though.
@Dave Bellamy If you’re reading this and working a desk job, buy a walking desk treadmill.
@Dave Bellamy I have a desk job, I make sure to take at least 10 minutes of my lunch break to walk.
Everyday it helps and adds up, I highly recommend.
Dr. Berg, I wonder if monitoring the HRV levels and HR/SpO2 using for example a fitness watch 24/7 to detect stress and overtraining (like using the body battery data from Garmin) would help to reduce the risk. The data could help to prevent overtraining and reduce stress uising breathing and meditation technics.
Love the content, doctor. I have a question about internal hyaluronic acid supplements for joint health (and also gut and skin health). I haven’t found a video from you on this, and I am very curious to learn more. Thank you!
I noticed a lot of my troubles with PACs were alleviated when I started taking a high quality B-Vitamin complex. Thank you Dr. Berg for all of your information – you’ve made a big difference in my life!
And zzzd does that mean it got better?
And which type of b complex?
Dr. Berg, thank you so much for all these informative videos. Not sure if you know, but you have a loyal audience base in Bangladesh too! My question is, how do we definitively find out the level of stress in our body. Also, Vitamin B supplement increases the pressure and gives hot flash in my body. But I know that I have Vit B deficiency to some extent. Seeking your suggestion in this context.
Understandable and practical and useful information as always. Thank you, Dear Dr. Berg.
This doctor changed my entire family life forever❤ I’m 46 years old and I feel like 21
👍👍👍
Life is tough and only strong survive. No lie. Stay healthy everyone. Thank you Dr Berg for all you do.❤
I appreciate not only these important issues you talk about, but also the detail you go into with each topic. The explanation of how people get to the state they’re in is sorely lacking in the medical industry. How are people supposed to heal and then avoid relapsing into the same condition without understanding the causes? Thank you for your clear and concise explanations! You’re a blessing!
