“Nevertheless, the results reinforce confirming hypogonadism and reviewing cardiovascular risk with a clinician before starting testosterone therapy. In Aliquot #116, I discuss strategies to optimize testosterone levels.”

“Men that routinely engage in either endurance or resistance training had lower cardiovascular stress and did not increase their heart rate as much as untrained men did when put under high social or psychological stress.”

“Participants with cardiovascular disease scored lower on memory tests initially, but after taking the multivitamin/multimineral supplements for a year, their memory scores improved, reaching a level comparable to those without cardiovascular disease.”

“One of the mechanisms linking cardiovascular disease, obesity, and dementia is vascular dysfunction, which contributes to blood-brain barrier failure. Learn more about vascular dysfunction in this clip featuring Dr. Axel Montagne.”

“Most cardiovascular health interventions emphasize aerobic exercise, which challenges the heart, lowering blood pressure and increasing cardiac output. However, a recent study found that a combination of aerobic exercise and resistance training provides similar cardiovascular benefits to those of aerobic exercise alone.”

“A recent study found that microplastics accumulate in human arterial plaques, increasing the risk for cardiovascular disease-related events, such as heart attack or stroke, nearly fivefold.”

“The researchers measured the participants' peak oxygen consumption during exercise and assessed other aspects of their cardiovascular health, including blood pressure and blood vessel health.”

“Measuring a variety of metabolites in plasma (called metabolic profiling) may be a more accurate way to assess cardiovascular risk than BMI. Abnormal metabolome (found in obesity) linked to ~5-fold increase in cardiovascular events when comparing people who were matched for BMI but had an opposing metabolome.”

“High blood pressure increases a person's risk for heart disease and stroke and contributes to small vessel disease, a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, dementia, and stroke. However, lifestyle factors, such as sauna use, help maintain healthy blood pressure.”

“Sugar-sweetened beverages contribute to weight gain and increase the risk of severe health concerns, such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. A recent study revealed that in 2020, sugar-sweetened drinks were linked to 2.2 million new cases of type 2 diabetes and 1.2 million new cases of cardiovascular disease globally.”
