- Heart attacks are increasing esp in younger patients. Whilst we are getting better at treating the patients that make it to hospital, we are not really making any difference to the number of deaths from heart attacks in those patients who are unfortunate enough to reach hospital. Here i discuss some fundamental principles which can reduce your chances of having a heart attack and dying suddenly from it. My name is sanjay Gupta and i am on www.yorkcardiology.co.uk.

A cardiologist with his heart in the right place
I had a "silent heart attack" when I was 61 and never fully realized it until my primary care doc sent me to a cardiologist who ran tests and determined there was some damage to the heart. I can remember when it happened because I felt terrible and was curled up in a ball in bed for 3 days. It never occurred to me that it was an MI.
God bless this man for his kind heart
this video has made my health anxiety and cardiophobia significantly worse
😂 Sorry for laughing! ... I feel ya! He says let's get down to the nitty-gritty and the first three he lists, age, genetics, and luck do not help to make me feel less anxious!!😉
Right. However I believe the way he words it isn’t the greatest. Heart attacks are not common at all with the proper lifestyle. Genetics and age I feel like play a small part but I feel like 99% are preventable.
Me too
My dad had 5 heart attacks first one at age 45 .....had 3 defibs changed, he finally died of kidney failure at 72 from taking 23 pills a day all those years . Damage was done. RiP dad. Miss u so much.
So sorry
trust me he was a warrior.
Of course you do too-such a shame to read about your dad. Thank you anyway.
@@malisyed1829 thank u! Yes he was a strong man .. runs in my blood I feel it.
Thank you for that of course.
This totally make sense as my atrial firbulation becomes worse when I didn't sleep for a longer period of time and I finally get a good 8 hours sleep my heart palpitations are less. As well as when I stopped dating my ex I can sleep better and have less palpitations :) Thank you again doctor we miss all these information which make a big difference in our lives xx
Doctor Sanjay you’re the best, keep on keeping us well informed on how to take better care of our bodies. We only get one life and one body and our health is so precious, sometimes we don’t realise just how precious until something goes wrong. From a young age, teens and twenties are not too soon to learn how to take care of our health, especially not starting to smoke and to eat healthy food like nuts, fruit and vegetables.
Never date the ex! :-) Hope you are doing well.
Ex I hear ya lol!!
Your very personable and polite...and I appreciate that. I wish you were my doctor!
...and the cutest...☺
He makes my heart sing! 💓
Little summary :
- Two types of Heart Attacks, you either die instantly with no chance or get to the hospital ASAP to get treated.
- Too much research is focusing on "treating" heart attacks vs prevention.
Factors :
- Age (the older the worst), older people tend to understand it could happen anytime soon and accept it.
- Genetics
- Luck : you can do everything right to avoid a heart attack through your life but you could have one anyway
- Your Lifestyle such as :
1. Avoid Smoking
2. Avoid Drugs (especially cokaine)
3. Be careful about your overall diet (raw products/fresh veggies/local food = best) less processed food. Fat Waist > hips is bad.
4. Avoid carbonated drinks... What's wrong about water?
5. Avoid Alcohol (no excess)
6. Do exercise (moderate exercise reduce inflammation levels)
7. SLEEP, have enough, do not compromise it. Try to recognize if you have sleep apnea and prevent it's very bad effects on your body and treat it.
8. Stress : Health > Money, relax,
9. Anger/Depression
10. Check your cholesterol on a regular basis
Thank you for this video 💚
Take D3 an K7 vitamin to get rid off calcium plaque in your arteries
@@buildingstatux7720 those tablets do NOT REMOVE PLAQUE. you are peddling lies.
why do you need to do this? why why why? you lack originality.
@@fishtherapy100 In that person's defense there are some videos out by a couple of TH-cam Docs that encourage the use of Vit K2 to remove arterial plague!
BUT, one well known Doc says NOT to supplement with it, as it can cause a piece of the plague to break-away and cause a heart attack, just as Dr. Gupta is describing here!!
I’m going to have young adult grandkids listen to this. Early education is critical to long term health. Thank you kind Doctor. wish had more like you.
Nice to see someone who cares about others and wants to help without looking for $$$. I'm in the medical field and am now realizing how important vitamins and minerals are to our health. I'm passing on your videos
Some say vitamins don't help .
@@verdun8481 they don't help?
THEY are ESSENTIAL!
For instance ,,, I cured my arthritis 5 years ago by taking liquid colloidal fulvic ( plant derived ) sourced minerals for a month twice a day. I take it once a day now.
@@dianecarter7158. Thanks for sharing.
Is there a brand you recommend?
Thanks again
Excellent video--Since I was diagnosis with Afib last year I have taken all these these things that you have mentioned and turned my life style around--to date I have lost 115 pounds and feel great. I have changed my diet completely to the plant based diet with no dairy, oil, eggs, or meat. I have stopped using salt and limited sweets to fruits. I walk and excerise every day. I sleep so much better these days and I feel great. Thank you for this great video!
dauntie kay healthy sea or Himalayan salt is good in limited amounts.
Extra virgin olive oil is good for your heart.
@@RepentfollowJesus not according to Dr Caldwell Esselstyn….. he says ALL oils are bad for the heart
@@kizzywitch a carnivore diet is very healthy for your heart.
Sir here in the third world your videos are so invaluable and life saving. We don’t even have speciality doctors available in our hospitals. Your videos are the information we need to help ourselves and our family especially the elderly. Thank you very much!
Magnesium is helpful for blood pressure
Magnesium and potassium is great for seniors.... Elderly stay away from salt and sugar and stress.
walking is crucial for any human, must walk every single day, thats the key for good health, next is eat whole foods.
How do you know English?

Thanks... I don't smoke, don't eat junk, but l learned how really bad for your health stress is. I learned to manage that and learned more about listening to my heart when I went through testing and proding for my genetic arrythmia. I did my own research take magnesium and potassium daily and have learned that genetics aside I can manage my lifestyle. Thanks for another great video.
Be careful abt taking potassium and even magnesium in pill form. Eat a completely plant based diet with a lot of dark leafy greens. Makes a big difference... I mean to say that what's important with potassium is to balance it with sodium. Check it out, and if you dont have an imbalance, best to get what you get from your eating whole foods.
Take in people what this doc has took the time to tell you , the wealth of knowledge and information he's passing on is priceless and lifesaving thank you doc 😀
wish I had a doctor like this ...thank you
God bless Dr. Gupta for sharing his knowledge. I’ve been a family doctor for 17 years, and I always find his videos so helpful.
My wife suffered from Migraine about 25 years. Finally Neurologist recommended her to take Magnesium 400 mg and COQ10 300mg. No migraine for almost 10 years. I totally agree with Dr. Guptha that Magnesium does a lot for us. Thank you for wonderful video!

Thank you so much for posting this Doctor. I recently had an unnerving episode of signs of a heart attack. I took it seriously. Have an appt with my own doc.
I'm an older (senior) person & although I've never smoked, drank alcohol or used illegal drugs; I am Class 3 on the Obese Range. I'm addicted to sweets, etc. I rarely exercise. I'm now trying to change my eating & exercise habits for the long haul. Thank you again for all the info. 👊
He's genius. Doctor Gupta thank you so much for helping us understand
Everything we need to know about our heart, BP etc. God bless you doc.
No doctors explain to us about our BP or our heart etc. Thank you Sir
Greatly appreciated.
I'm 24. I've taken part in acid twice (I was fine but sometimes I wonder if that did anything to my heart.)
I've smoked weed for 3 years.
I've taken Adderall
My mom has had a heart attack.
These are the biggest reasons for my fear. I think about it every day. And I KNOW that just having the anxiety alone could cause a heart attack yet I can't seem to stop being terrified. Even after quitting I have a horrible fear of a heart attack. And stroke, and seizure, the list goes on. My fear of dying is going to take my life.
Anxiety cause heart attack ? Now you caused my fear to skyrocket
eat right and exercise, stop smokin
If you’ve stopped doing drugs, then they shouldn’t cause heart disease. If you’re considering continuing taking drugs, you should consider that they can make you more resistant to anesthesia. So for example you need a surgery, the anesthesiologist may need to keep giving you more and more amounts of anesthesia to keep you to under. This can be dangerous. My opinion is you should worry about this more. But in any case, it’s only a concern if you continue, not if you quit.
@@tenianjack875 Stress over a long period of time can. Not anxiety.
Try to have fun and not dwell on death it happens to all of us at some point.
Doc, you are amazing! I love how you explain everything!
Thank you so much for the information. I watched a couple of your videos and I definitely understand heart attacks better. Thank you for bringing awareness because people do need to know about this.
This doctor is absolutely brilliant.
no one is going to make it out of this world alive … enjoy life and take care of yourself!
I'm still alive for now and I Love You!!
I DID AT 47 and made it to the hospital in time ,but it left me mentally and emotionally scarred
Thanks so much for sharing this important knowledge..👍👍
You are an excellent cardiologist, easy and simple clear explaination.

Thank you so much for posting your videos. This helped me so much with my anxiety about my tachycardia. After listen, my heart rate instantly slowed down. I'm relieved.
Excellent video. Thank you.
Outstanding info thanks for sharing your knowledge
Dr Sanjay, thank you so very much for this video, and all your others, you have woken up the reality in my body. You are a wonder in this day and age where doctors are no longer doctors, due to regulations, insurances, too many patients, no time for the patient and finally no explanations, so just mask with medicines! Thank you Dr Sanjay, I forward all your videos! I am in US, but my best friend is in UK (where NHS is free at the point of use) by paying taxes. Which I do not understand?
Excellent doctor! Thank you I understand now!
I love this guy!! I can fall asleep getting his wisdom about the heart
Thank you Doctor Gupta for your kind advice, I can sleep well tonight. Please keep up your good work
Blessings to you and your family.🌻
Thank you doctor, fantastic counselling and communication skills. As well as top quality information thank you for your service.
thank you for all you do to help people... God Bless You
Thank you doc, this video helps to overcome my fears.
Thank you very much for this very important video! God bless you!
Dr. Gupta you have a pleasant personality and they way you speak!
Also a whole food plant based diet with lots of green leafy vegetables, no oil, no sugar, no animal products.
this man is a Saint so kind it makes a change
Thank you Dr. so much for sharing this video, it really was a eye opening for me and for symptoms I am feeling. 😊💓

Life saving words !! Thank you..!!
Dr I salute you far such a useful feedback on heart attack thanks and good wishes
Thank u Dr. Gupta for your incredibly valuable advice. Thank you,
From India 🇮🇳
I have had a lot of medical procedures and most of the surgeons are in another world, very sharp, and not well mannered and I felt I was being talked down to. But you attitude and well mannered when communicating with another person is to be highly
Sorry I may have commented on old video but As a nutrition advice nurse I love you mention the kinds of patients, and make it so understandable. I gift and I will send it no chg as a gift out of my gratitude for you doing this video. Thank you. Just this year my best friend died of sudden heart attack. He bicycled every day, he ate an omnivores diet, he was a wonderfully positive person, and he never suspected it. I just wish I had gifted him my research and I appreciate you cover reducing risk for the people at risk for sudden heart attack and you reduce anxiety for people with ischemic symptoms. I reduce total inflammatory markers via dietary modifications and you know how important that can be ❤️
Do you still have your meal plan available for sale,?
I still have my meal plans on another website
Did your friend ever have heart tests done- ie, echocardiogram, nuclear stress test, etc.?
You are the best and I wish you were my doctor. Listening and watching you help me control my stress ,
anger, and depression.. You are giving me a better quality of life. And because I now also watch my diet and take the necessary vitamins for my heart. Hopefully when I am fully cure of atrial fibrillation, I will write to you and let you know how you have change my life. Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Dr.York for all your videos!!!!!!!!
Really really like you after listening to you feel comforted hve practically listened to all yr lectures on you tube
Gained lot of insights into heart related problems
Frm nairobi kenya
Love this video. Everything was explained in such detail and laymen terms that even i could understand at 76 years of age. Thank you so much. Keep your video's coming. They are so interesting.
You are so welcome!
@@YorkCardiology sir you know what I have done numerous ecg till now,but I did controlled myself for 2 months and some days back I did ecg and it showed sinus tachycardia because I was anxious that time,now my mind played tricks on me and was constantly thinking I have problem went to again do ecg that time he printed 3 times because I was not satisfied one ecg sai normal and two showed sinus arrthymia but normal ecg,then was in that loop again and went again did 3 ecg and they were normal apart from fast heart rate and next day went again and 2 ecg normal and today I did 3 ecg they were normal still my brain thinks I have problem,I did 10 ecgs In 4 days.😭😭😭
@@aestheticvibes7524 I feel you . I have different doctors giving me different diagnosis it's terrifying
@@everything5066 brother I am feeling some relief now,one thing bro when you had your last ecg?
so Helpfulthank you SanjayI wish there was a GIlike of you what you are doing is very valuable:) - TYVM, and keep up all the god work
Really good video-and I just wanted to mention something I saw recently about what to do if you are alone and have a Heart Attack.
To buy time : Evidently take very deep breath and cough really deeply [ as if clearing the chest] the cough compresses on the heart and acts like a DIY massage, keep doing this until help arrives. This assumes you can dial 999 and gasp a location !!
Also people who are really stresses can take a 6 week course on the NHS to learn Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and learn how to manage stress, worry, depression really effectively. I bet there is a U-Tube video about this too.
Last comment-just to say most important to cut out refined sugar - but organic honey is a good thing!!
Not True.
Yup ,where I can learn CBT online
Your concept of food we take in is amazing. I completely agree. They are compromising people's health all for convenience.
Hamish McGregor: Yes, well we have to be careful with what we decide to eat. We are ultimately responsible for what we eat and the results.
I first thought that you were the famous CNN doctor. Thank you for the video, very comprehensive, well done!
I love these episodes because I have serious family genetics regarding heart disease.
My father and grandfather both passed from heart disease.
My Grandfather smoked several cigars per day and my father was a heavy smoker and moderate drinker.
Ive always had a low grade high LDL cholesterol and inflamation.
So I take statins and reasonably eat well and do not smoke.
Although I seldom exercise and generally dont sleep well.
@VIJAY Well he died twice.
Once at 50 but was revived and a pacemaker was installed then he ulimately died at 63
Great video
Thank you for your advice...
Very useful information. Thanks doc
Brilliant video 👍
As a indian i really admire you. You are a real insprition to me. Thank you and so much love you BHAIYA(bro? ✌😍
When I was 50, I was diagnosed with Angina and as time went on, it got quite bad to the extent I used my spray before I went out. 15 years later, I found a couple of documentaries on a whole food plant based way of eating. Within 2-3 weeks of eating this way, no angina, haven’t used my spray in 3 years and can walk uphills no problem. Diet is the main key!
Thats awesome to know thanks for sharing
Thank you for all your good advice. X

Awesome bro. You’ve just scared the shit out of me. What is the point in life if all of these things can trigger instant death
Michael Botting that’s rude. If you get scared don’t watch it
Oh STOP! The guy was kidding! Lighten up!
It is very hard to give up every guilty pleasure. My addictions are soda and chocolate. Very very hard to give up and very very hard on the body.
