“For women, adults under 40, and adults with comorbidities, any amount of alcohol raised the risk of cardiovascular disease. Among men with three or more comorbid conditions, consuming four to six standard drinks per day nearly doubled the risk of developing a cardiovascular disease.”

“The mechanisms that drive the effects of sauna bathing include activation of heat shock proteins and pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines; decreased blood pressure and arterial stiffness; and multiple improvements in cardiovascular function.”

“Consumption of 2-deoxyglucose mimics the effects of glucose deprivation. Although some research indicates that 2-deoxyglucose is neuroprotective and extends lifespan, it appears to have harmful effects on the cardiovascular system.”

“The estimated differences were larger for some specific outcomes. One minute of vigorous activity was associated with a risk reduction similar to 7.8 minutes of moderate activity for cardiovascular mortality and 9.4 minutes for incident type 2 diabetes.”

“Long-term outcomes Across prospective cohorts, the highest versus lowest anthocyanin intake (from many foods, not just blueberries) has been associated with a: 26% lower cardiovascular-disease incidence,. 18% lower myocardial-infarction incidence,.”

“Studies of short activity breaks have shown improvements in blood pressure and blood glucose, demonstrating that activity does not have to be sustained for long periods to benefit cardiovascular and metabolic health. Longer activity bouts can provide the same benefits while keeping cardiovascular and metabolic demands elevated for longer.”

“Participants that were given vitamin B supplements for 4 weeks before exposure to concentrated air pollution for 2 hours reversed the bad effects on the heart rate by 150% and total white blood count by 139%.”

“Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death worldwide, claiming the lives of more than 17 million people every year. A recent meta-analysis and systematic review suggests that quercetin may exert protective effects to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.”

“Aerobic exercise strengthens the heart muscle, lowers blood pressure, and reduces inflammation, promoting improved cardiovascular health. Learn how even resistance training can be aerobic in this clip featuring Dr. Martin Gibala. Read full publication.”
