‘Dr. Ken’ Star Ken Jeong Weighs In On Bob Harper’s Heart Attack | TODAY
Ken Jeong should just be on the Doctor's show lol
dr ken's like uhhh 50 is not the prime of your life
No more buttered coffee for bob.
Yes. He was on Keto when he had the Heart Attack
Ken Jeong is great.
What if you have no way of knowing your medical history because you're adopted (like me)?
Somebody show Bob my video right away. He needs to blame the real culprit HIS DIET
Be sure to check out the new film "What the Health." Health is Power! www.greensmoothieparty.com
I heard about that. I'll try to watch it this weekend
yes, so true, insane!!! so easy
yep!
Wrong its hereditary
He drank coffee with huge amounts of butter and coconut oil every morning for breakfast and people wonder why he had a heart attack. Exercise will only get you so far. Your diet is more important and Bob is a perfect example for this. In spite of his ostensible fitness, Bob still had a heart attack because of his poor diet. The fact that he had it so young has to do with genetics, but if he were eating properly it never would have happened.
adamaj exactly and if he was healthy so why did he decide to change his diet?i call bs to save his reputation.
Actually he was not YOUNG at age of 51 to have heart attack, many have them in their 40's. It been founded through autopsies of American soldiers artherosclerosis exists already at age 20!!!, not surprising been eating meat and fat diet for TWENTY YEARS. Having a heart attack at 50 shows HOW RESILENT the humans body is. Too bad then, people then just really ABUSE IT.
It IS young to have a heart attack at 51 or 40s or ever for that matter. It's become the norm over the last few decades for us westerners because we are increasingly eating more animal products and processed food and moving less. And it's becoming more normal in parts of the world that historically haven't had our diseases of affluence but have been slowly adopting our eating habits. It's amazing what people will get used to and accept as normal! It's NOT normal to have heart attacks and it's certainly not normal to have them in your 40s and 50s. The people in blue zones, vegans, people that eat plant based whole foods, etc. just don't have heart attacks. An Okinawan would call a 51 year old a baby.
adamaj
He always record his meals on instagram and he did not drink bulletproof coffee although he promotes it(money?). His meals were not fatty except peanutbutter.
I had a heart attack on June 14. Thank you Jesus everything that could go right did. I had the widow maker also. Do not know how I feel yet, emotionally, working on it. However, get yourself checked. I had no symptoms at all untill the attack. Get yourself checked.

Sorry to hear that ,I hope your feeling better speedy recovery, may I ask what tests did they perform on you or do you recommend asking your docter
Before his heart attack Bob was on the Rachel Ray show promoting a coffee recipe with a teaspoon of Ghee (Butter) and a teaspoon of coconut oil. He said he drinks it every morning. I find it crazy he keeps blaming his genetics for the heart attack. Which is basically trying to observe himself of any ownership of why he had a heart attack.
Dr. Ken is so cool
welcome to youtube, where all the experts live.
I guess no more coconut oil with coffee for me..
What people forget is that even if you are vegan or eating healthy and exercise, you can still get a heart attack including the dreaded widow maker. Do your own due diligence and research what works best for your body individually and rely on God. God is your only hope to survive.
Who else was praying ken Jeong switched to the Leslie Chow accent mid sentence and started talking in the third person ?
Exercise doesnt mean anything if you eat a bad diet. It just means your putting more of a strain on your heart as the plaque builds up. Sad that people cant learn even after death comes knocking.
No, he *wasn't* healthy. That's the point.
Right! People keep on treating 'fit' and 'healthy' as synonyms, which they're not. You can't really call yourself healthy if you're not fit, but you can certainly be very fit but still be unhealthy.
Well said!
some ppl have a 3000 calorie diet but exercise for 3 hours a day to build muscle mass get heart attacks too. cholesterol and sugar are bad for u no matter how much u exercise.
Hi sir Ken an actuall MD?
I find it frustrating that none of these videos address diet. What about responsible medicine?
Frederick Hunt Even Dr. Ken knows it was his diet but he is just being politically correct. They obviously don't want to stir anything.
I just can’t take dr ken seriously YOUR CHOW 😳
Had to wait 2 minutes before i was allowed to listen to the only qualified individual present speak.

One thing I can tell you as a cardiac patient, Not all heart problems are related to diet, weight, and diabetes.
Jeannie Boisvert while all heart problems are not caused by diet if you really want to maximize your health outcomes I highly recommend that you follow Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn. nutritionfacts.org/video/the-mediterranean-diet-or-a-whole-food-plant-based-diet/
I appreciate that. I see a wonderful cardiac specialist. Will check it out.
Marina Girl seriously are all of you vegans on this video spokespersons for Dr. Esseltyn??
Jeannie Boisvert look up Dr. Matthias Rath, a molecular biologist, who worked with 2-time Nobel Prize winner Dr. Linus Pauling on solving the cardiovascular disease puzzle TWO DECADES AGO and discussed Lp(a), which Bob later revealed had (genetic) which Increases heart attack risk 200-400% and is unaffected by diet or lifestyle. Research Dr. Linus Pauling and heart disease.
Stress
As a vegan I cannot stand people saying that it's purely about diet. Yes, the amount of cholesterol people consume plays a part, but it is about genetics. There are people with very low intake of cholesterol or even vegans with high cholesterol because of mutations in their genes just like there are people with low LDL levels that eat McDonalds all day.
Pretty obvious it helps though
th-cam.com/video/EqKNfyUPzoU/w-d-xo.html
exercise does not get rid of the cholesterol and fat
You're correct, it been said; Cannot exercise a bad diet away.
Yes it is
Lack of electrolytes can cause this while working out.
Having clogged arteries is genetic? Hmmm.....
Yes... its genetic; the "dumb/stupid gene". Makes you unable to decipher good vs bad information. And you end up believing the wrong information >>> which leads to wrong eating >>> which then leads to a clogged artery and then a heart attack. It always start with the stupid gene.
But modern science saved many people's lives, including stupid people/gene. Where if it was Mother Nature, she would have killed these stupid gene to stop them from reproducing.
Hence >>> if you're born dumb, you tend to do dumb things (including what you eat).
Cracking up how everyone just looks at the licensed physician/comedian/actor and assumes he's an expert in cardiac health. Lolzzzzz! He's not a cardiac specialist.
Bonnie Hundley knows more than you
why he doesn't say why the artery was clogged ?And someone who has a heart attack is not perfectly healthy and out of nowhere has a heart attack.And his mother didn't suffer a heart attack at a young age, perhaps what he inherited was his mom bad habits.
Stop saying people are healthy when they are having a heart attack.
People are unhealthy, that's why they have a heart attack.
I wonder how many people are going to keep bashing Bob Harper and not take the advice of Dr. Ken Jeong seriously. I am not a fan of Bob Harper but it seems many people left off before the doctor on the set said go to your doctor and get checked out. I am a business student and I knew eggs could become dangerous if eaten everyday.
Joseph Parker you look like an egg 🥚
I have to say, why are we so afraid of dying tho? Heart attack or some other form of dooming illness...we will have to die at some point in time. Death does not discriminate with a persons age.
it's more about How Not to Die
Giulia De Piano Its more about avoiding the medical/insurance scam. I hope Bob does not have to declare bankruptcy after his stay at hospital and continued checkups.
p1antn 120 years tops, all humans have an expiration-date.
He should go on a plant based , no oils diet. He was vegan before, so it shouldn't be hard for him.
But he wasn't healthy
Bob mentioned one thing in the interview that is the most important, "cholesterol." Bob was a Vegan for a time a number of years ago, then went back to eating meat, dairy and eggs. Genetics did not give him the life-threatening condition of Atherosclerosis that almost killed him, his diet choices did. This really goes to show you that exercise alone is not enough. Not even the amount of intense exercise Bob did daily and/or weekly was enough. The diet still remains the highest determining factor for avoiding almost all causes of mortality. To anyone reading this.. go Vegan. Stay Vegan.
keLso Yes, Bob should be the poster child for why everyone needs to go vegan!!!!
Look, I don't wanna go vegan entirely. I enjoy eating meat too much. What I have done, however, is cut down on my meat consumption. I now eat more vegetarian meals and cut down on sugars and fat.
Wow, lots of vegan medical professionals in this comment section. Are we sure that flat out denying that genetics can be a factor, especially when you know next to nothing about this complex topic, is really the healthy way to go ? Im NOT saying its the only factor, diet etc. is important, but what about your personal dietary preference is more important than scientific fact? You cant just ignore things that dont "fit"
th-cam.com/video/EqKNfyUPzoU/w-d-xo.html
He was promoting drinking coffee with butter and coconut oil. Oils are not heart healthy!!!!
Robin Kozelka everyone's a doctor now.
he also drank lots of alcohol too just like you vegans with your sugar addiction and fatty live
Robin Kozelka
He was recording his meals on instagram. It was mostly eggwhite sandwich(zero fat) and his fat is peanutbutter. He never recorded he ever drank bulletproof coffee although he was promoting it.
Depends on the oil
So you’re saying, we must go vegan ?!?!!
"in their 50's...prime of their lives..." hmm...
go vegan yo
lol diet. yeah part of it. not all of it.
glad to see youtube has so many health care professionals waiting in the comment sections
Heart disease doesn't "run" in families. Diet habits do!!! Heart disease is not a normal consequence of human aging.
Sadly, my dad has heart disease, my grandma has heart disease, my aunts both have heart disease. It runs in our family. Don't say something isn't true just because you didn't experience it personally.
I'm sad about your losses. Be reassured. It doesn't mean that it is going to happen to you as well. You might find this short video useful.
th-cam.com/video/kBxZNlN7rfM/w-d-xo.html
Are you a doctor
Amy D. Ignorant statement!!
very ignorant statement , as predisposition to diseases can run in family, although I agree learned behavior from the family can have an impact which includes beliefs about diet
Harper's a bit creepy lol
Insulin and calcium, problems... Cause, poor diet, standard American diet... Solution, ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting and exercise... Tests, CAC and GgT...
A plant based diet would have saved his life.
And you know this how never having diagnosed him? Do you have a medical degree? :) Like Ken. Interesting mix of talents. Funny with a medical degree. And was a practicing/licensed Dr for over 7 yrs before he "got Knocked UP". :)
I don't think most people (who haven't gone to college) know how hard it is just to get into any college let a lone a famous one. Then get into a professional program like medicine. Graduate. Get a job in that field. And be good at it. Not just "get by" or do it badly.
I think only Ken is qualified to say that...between your comment, and any one reading this comment. As Ken said there are always too many factors to consider. Isn't as simple as changing his diet..without knowing anything about his health...as a practicing doctor.
So, cool to be a successful comedian/movie star and a real doctor. :) Talking about being a high-achiever.

FAMILY HISTORY and genetics place a huge role in this people.
Sheree Burress - Millions more will suffer with the attitude of throwing hands in the air and blaming "family history and genetics"...There is no excuse to continue in ignorance, the science is out. You can stop and reverse heart disease by following a whole food low fat/no oil plant based diet... even in advanced cardiac patients with a family history as clinically proven by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn and Dr. Dean Ornish. Let's help get this critical information out there!

Sorry ReeRee- family history and genetics do not place fat inside arteries. People do it to themselves when they consume meat and dairy. Time for people to step up to the plate and take personal responsibility for their actions.
silly eating steak and eggs is ok otherwise half the gym would have heart attacks
diabetes is brought on by glucose overload there's no gloucose in steak and eggs only protein
@@ramboman2064 absolutely false, its because of fat blocking the absorbption of sugar.
th-cam.com/video/U1f9g9Y1wm0/w-d-xo.html
Is one example.
Another is shawn baker who only eats red meat, who is diabetic.
People cure diabetes on pure carb diets, look up walter kempner.
I'm glad to see people pointing out his terrible diet. It is true, go vegan to save your heart.
Jigglypoop97 nope...will not work for everyone. His Lp(a) levels were high and that is a genetic factor that increases your risk 200-400%. Look it up!
ness joud but his unhealthy high fat helped it
ness joud he was cool until he put all that fat and high cholesterol in his system
Kia waters a lot of fitness gurus and bodybuilders eat that yet I’m not seeing them or hearing about them dropping dead from heart disease. If it’s diet related it’s due to The all American diet loaded with trans fats/hydrogenated oils and processed foods. NOT lean proteins. Too much pork and red meat and donuts yes. Like I said, after 2 months of testing they found out his genetic predisposition of Lp(a) plus a family history, another risk factor.
Hmmm, I do wonder if this is an excellent option however, people will have to be advised to not become a junk food vegan. You've got me wanting to check out Dr. Greger's book titled, How Not to Die.
Vegans have heart attacks too
@Richard Dixon Stress and anxiety increases a risk of heart problems too not just your diet and also family history. If you have Type I diabetes, it doesn't matter how you change your diet; you still have to take insulin. Certain kinds of cancer like leukemia, breast cancer, brain tumors, lung and colon cancer. Just because you are vegan doesn't mean you are totally healthy either.
Maybe if they only eat olive oil, but actually the right vegan diet can reverse it th-cam.com/video/EqKNfyUPzoU/w-d-xo.html
This doctor is bull…..
