When I asked the readers of this newsletter about their experience of trying to get a comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment, the general feeling I got back was one of frustration. The majority of readers here are middle-aged and concerned about their future risk of heart disease. But you do. You always have a choice.
Exercise prevents and reverses cardiovascular disease, but whether high-intensity exercise training (HIIT) is safe and effective for adults after minimally invasive heart surgery is unknown. Exercise is a wonder drug for cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention and reversal. And the more you exercise, the better your outcomes.
[link] Of course, diet is an important component of metabolic health, but exercise also plays an indispensable role. Not only does exercise help to maintain a healthy weight and/or promote weight loss, but it can also keep cardiometabolic riskfactors in check in the absence of weight loss.

The cardiopulmonary exercise test was mainly performed before and 3 months after cardiac rehabilitation (at the end of intervention). Conclusion Cardiac exercise rehabilitation is helpful for improving patients’ cardiopulmonary endurance and quality of life.
These pharmaceutical interventions have emerged as a viable option for individuals who have been struggling with weight management and offer an additional tool alongside other lifestyle modifications such as exercise. These weight loss drugs, however, are not meant to be a standalone solution.
Being overweight is a major riskfactor for heart disease and also an early death. But even if you have excess weight, there are many things you can do to seriously reduce that risk without focusing on weight loss itself. So, if you struggle with excess weight, you need to know what else you can do to reduce your future risk.
The DPP is a year-long program involving multiple group coaching sessions that focuses primarily on improving: Nutrition Exercise Stress Management. In those who reversed their pre-diabetes using nutrition strategies alone, there was no significant change in the risk of death at three years. All of these patients had a BMI >27.
On Monday, I posted a video summary of the recently released Scientific Statement by the American Heart Association (AHA) on resistance exercise training for cardiovascular health. Everyone knows that resistance exercise is important for building and maintaining muscle mass. We lift weights to build and maintain muscle.

Salvatore Carbone, PhD: First, I’d like to point out that obesity is a major riskfactor for cardiometabolic disease. There are significant data that show that if you have obesity, you have a high risk of developing coronary heart disease, heart failure, type 2 diabetes (T2D) or riskfactors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. [1]
Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, but the good news is that many of the riskfactors are controllable. Incorporate foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts, as they have been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease.
They routinely do not exercise. The first thing to realise is that while healthy centenarians rely on genetics, we must rely on riskfactor control. Aggressively control the riskfactors. Maybe not as late as them, but definitely later than those who have poor riskfactor profiles. They often smoke.
In addition to elevated fasting glucose, there are many other riskfactors for developing diabetes, including: Metabolic syndrome BMI > 30 (Obese category) Elevated HBA1c - Not in the diabetes category but above normal. And when you have impaired fasting glucose, you likely have had insulin resistance for MANY years prior.
Prevention While certain riskfactors associated with heart risks, such as age, sex, race, ethnicity & family history, can’t be changed, you can take plenty of other preventive measures. Obesity or being overweight can increase the risk of heart disease. Get some exercise regularly. Maintain a nutritious diet.
ObjectiveThis study aims to explore the effect of a case management model that breaks through the temporal and spatial characteristics on the at-home phase II exercise rehabilitation of postoperative patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).MethodsWe
