AFib: Deadlier Than Cancer (But 100% Preventable)

Описание: Dr. Peter Rogers — one of the most brilliant medical minds I know - had a new book called Prevent and Reverse Atrial Fibrillation. In this presentation he explains why AFib is one of the deadliest and fastest growing heart conditions today.

Here are a few takeaways:

AFib is now more common than cancer, and often just as deadly.
50% of patients are dead or demented within 5 years of diagnosis.
Conventional medicine rarely addresses the real causes.
AFib is largely a disease of modern living: high-fat diets, hypertension, diabetes, stress, toxins, and gut dysfunction.

The good news: with the right nutrition and lifestyle, it can often be prevented — and sometimes reversed. This is a powerful, eye-opening talk that could save lives. Please watch and share with anyone you know who is concerned about heart health.
